I'm Hazel Secco, CFP®, CDFA®, founder of Align Financial Solutions, a fiduciary wealth management firm in Hoboken, NJ. I work with high-net-worth women in leadership roles who have built significant wealth and want a financial partner who understands that wealth is about more than investment returns. Most of my clients are navigating equity compensation, pension and deferred compensation elections, a significant portfolio, and a tax picture that no longer fits on one page, and they want retirement, investments, tax, and estate handled as one coordinated plan, explained without jargon. My approach is collaborative, practical, and rooted in education. I believe financial planning should help you make informed decisions with confidence, not leave you feeling intimidated or confused. Whether we’re discussing stock options, retirement income, or tax strategies, my goal is to explain complex concepts in plain English so you always understand the “why” behind our recommendations. Before becoming a financial planner, I experienced firsthand how uncertainty around money can shape the way we think and make decisions. That perspective continues to influence how I work today. I know every client brings a unique story, values, and goals, which is why I believe the best financial plans are built around people, not products. When I’m not working with clients, you’ll usually find me spending time with my husband and our two daughters, recording educational content, or speaking to help more women feel confident taking control of their financial future.
