In 2009 I founded Game Theory Academy, a nonprofit that teaches financial skills to teenagers through the lens of strategic decision-making. My favorite part of that work has been guiding young people to set their own goals outside of what their grownups want for them and then align their day-to-day decisions with those goals. I bring that same strategic curiosity to financial planning for you. Prior to Game Theory Academy, I was CFO of a news media organization. I hold an MBA from Yale and a BA in Political Science from UC Berkeley. I am a CFP® professional, and a member of the XY Planning Network and National Association of Personal Financial Advisors. I have a lifelong interest in economics and am excited to work with you to do the heavy lifting of financial planning so you can focus on what you love to do. When I’m not creating financial plans, I’m the mother of a child with avid and ever-changing interests. I love to play guitar and sing bluegrass, roots, and old-time music, with a pop twist.
