With over 18 years of experience in financial planning, estate management, and investment advisory services, I founded Vineyard Wealth Group to help families, individuals, and non-profits navigate their financial journeys with confidence. My approach combines personalized planning, trusted advice, and innovative strategies tailored to each client’s unique goals and values, with a particular emphasis on Social Security analysis and decision-making as a cornerstone of financial success. Prior to starting Vineyard Wealth Group, I spent nearly 14 years at Charles Schwab, managing a $15 billion complex with over 30 employees, and served as a Senior Financial Advisor at Martha's Vineyard Investment Advisors. These experiences honed my ability to deliver comprehensive and collaborative wealth management solutions. As a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® professional, I bring advanced expertise in asset management, estate planning, tax strategies, and Social Security planning, along with credentials as an Accredited Asset Management Specialist® and Chartered Mutual Fund Counselor®. My Six Sigma Black Belt certification further reflects my commitment to efficiency and excellence in service delivery. Beyond the numbers, I’m deeply invested in my community. I serve on the board of the Martha’s Vineyard YMCA, actively support local initiatives, and completed the 2023 Boston Marathon, raising over $8,000 for the Doug Flutie Jr. Autism Foundation. Let’s connect and explore how I can help you achieve financial clarity, optimize your Social Security decisions, and enjoy lasting peace of mind.

I’m T.J. van Gerven, founder of Memento Financial Planning—a virtual, fee-only firm helping high-earning couples in their 30s and 40s align their money with what matters most. Most of my clients are navigating complex financial lives: managing equity comp, balancing student loans and child care, investing excess cash, and trying to figure out when enough is enough. I help them make smart, tax-efficient decisions while building toward a life of financial flexibility—where work becomes a choice, not a necessity. My planning process combines technical expertise with deeper conversations around values and purpose. Because financial planning isn’t just about growing net worth—it’s about using your resources to live more intentionally. When I’m not reviewing tax returns or modeling equity strategies, I’m probably road tripping with my partner, wandering a farmer’s market, or listening to a philosophy podcast.
