Each plan is personalized to reflect your goals, values, and unique circumstances. Since beginning my career in 2006, I’ve worked across wealth management, employee benefits, and financial education. Over the years, I’ve seen how empowering it can be when people gain control and understanding over their finances—especially during uncertain times. I’m particularly passionate about working with Solo Agers and women navigating life transitions.

Through persistence and smart financial choices, I achieved one of my proudest milestones—purchasing my own condo in 2021. I am based in the San Francisco Bay Area and work with clients all across the country. In my spare time, I enjoy nature walks, biking, learning about health and nutrition, painting, sewing, and spending time with my daughter and our two rescue cats, Turbo and Tyson.
