About

Elevation Financial provides discretionary portfolio management, financial planning and limited‑scope consulting to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, and pension/profit‑sharing plans. The firm also offers pension consulting to plan sponsors and, under separate engagement agreements, delivers tax preparation, business bookkeeping and payroll management to advisory clients.

The firm tailors investment advice to each client's objectives and risk tolerance, implementing model portfolios and primarily using mutual funds, ETFs and money market funds, with the option to incorporate socially responsible (ESG) approaches when requested. Service delivery is packaged into three tiers that combine investment management with ongoing planning, account syncing, periodic check‑ins and written financial plans reviewed at least annually.

What distinguishes the firm from many independent solo advisers is the combination of pension consulting and in‑house accounting services provided to clients under separate agreements, a mix that can create referral‑ and conflict‑of‑interest considerations the firm discloses and manages. The firm’s advisory offering is further informed by professional credentials in financial planning and socially responsible investing, which align with its stated use of values‑based portfolio construction.

Elevation Financial LLC

I’m a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ (CFP®) and owner of Elevation Financial, a fee-only financial planning and investment management firm serving progressive SRI/ESG investors. I work with individuals and families who are ready to gain greater control over their money and build a life with intention. I create a judgment-free space that empowers my clients to talk openly about their financial challenges, which can help form healthier relationships with money. I’ve been an entrepreneur for over two decades and have built and sold multiple businesses, including a digital marketing agency, a software company, and other service businesses. As a result of my business background, I often help my clients with similar challenges, including starting a business, or building and optimizing a business. I am tech-forward and highly organized. Many of my clients appreciate this because I am able to help them get organized with their money while providing accountability to help them make progress. Ultimately by working together we will help you make better money decisions, avoid costly detours, and lead a more fulfilling life. I host a weekly personal finance podcast called Wealth Redefined® which can be found whenever you listen to podcasts. I'm a sushi lover, Star Trek nerd and firmly in defense of one space after a period. In addition to comprehensive financial planning, I have some specific areas of deeper expertise.

Warmer provides personalized recommendations and introductions to independent fiduciary advisors. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

Each advisor listed on our site is an independent fiduciary responsible for their own advice. Warmer may receive fees from advisors for participation or referrals; these fees are paid by advisors and do not affect the fees clients pay for advisory services.

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before entering into an advisory relationship.
