Together, we tackle: -Cash flow and budgeting -Saving for goals and major purchases -Investments -Tax strategy -Insurance planning -Estate planning -Financial independence and retirement planning ...and the various life events that come up. Typical client questions for me: How do I manage/plan for cash flow and savings when international travel is central to my family values? How do I manage cash flow and accounts in different currencies? How do I plan for retirement when I’m not sure where I’ll retire? How do I manage my equity when some of it was granted while I worked overseas? How do I think about real estate (overseas and here in the US)? How do I minimize taxes when I have tax obligations in different countries? How do I save for my children’s college when I’m not sure where in the world they will go to college? How do I support family here and abroad? If you’re seeking a long-term partnership with a comprehensive financial planner who can guide you through all aspects of your financial life in the US and wherever life may take you, please send me a note and we can figure out if we’re a mutual fit.
