I transitioned into financial planning from the tech world, where I also held a mix of equity grants. Like many of my clients today, I was excited to own part of the companies I helped build. But that excitement quickly turned to confusion when it came time to actually develop a strategic plan. I understood that things like the Alternative Minimum Tax existed, but what I really needed was a holistic strategy — something that connected my equity decisions with my broader financial goals. My own experience is what inspired me to found Presidio Advisors. Today, I help Millennials and tech professionals gain clarity and confidence around their equity compensation and path toward financial independence. Building deep, long-term relationships with my clients is what is what gets me up in the morning. I’m based in Denver, CO and serve clients virtually across the U.S.

My superpower is taking complex financial matters and translating them into layman’s terms. The goal in our relationship is to dig deeper, to find what matters to you in your financial present and future and together develop solutions to fulfill your goals and put your fears to rest. The environment in which I grew up was financially chaotic. As such, I’ve made it my mission to understand not just money and finance, but also human behavior around money. As a wealth manager, I have the privilege of helping people transform their relationships with money and gain mastery over it. I recognized that earning a CFP is a big decision. Like any relationship, ours must be rooted in integrity, trust, and clear communication for it to thrive. I hold wealth management as sacred work. My job is to understand my client’s vision for their future, then work with them to design and implement a plan to fulfill that vision. After completing a triple major in Finance, Accounting, and German, I set off for a meditation retreat about the art of being human. This combination of experiences informs how I work and interact with others. If and when you would like to meet, feel free to schedule a call via my Calendly link. Whether or not we choose to work together, you’ll gain new knowledge and insight. It will be time well-spent. I’m available to meet globally, and have a physical office in Denver. In case you’re curious, when I’m not working for my clients, you can find me baking, hiking, or biking. I hold a Certificate in Pastry Arts from the Culinary Institute of Canada and participate in the annual AIDS/LifeCycle, a 550-mile fundraising ride from San Francisco to Los Angeles. I am a former Co-Chair for the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) and various local charities over the years. That’s the vision I’m making real in the world. You can also find me in the Horizons Foundation Professional Advisors Directory.
