About

Financial Empowerment provides portfolio management and financial planning to individuals, high‑net‑worth households, charitable organizations, and business entities, and offers project‑based and ongoing planning as well as planning bundled with investment management. In addition to retail clients, the firm provides portfolio management services for institutional clients and offers investment consulting to other registered investment advisers, while not establishing advisory relationships with the advisers’ underlying clients.

The firm’s investment approach combines cyclical and fundamental analysis with quantitative methods and modern portfolio theory, and it generally pursues a long‑term trading horizon while documenting client objectives and constraints in an Investment Policy Statement. Accounts are typically managed on a discretionary basis, and the firm requires clients to custody assets with a specified custodian and uses that custodian’s automated rebalancing tool for many trades.

Noteworthy for a small, independent adviser, FE supplements its advisory practice with an hourly investment‑consulting business for other advisers — a business the brochure discloses can occupy market‑hour time and which the firm intends to reduce as its advisory business grows. The firm also discloses specific compliance and trading controls (a written Code of Ethics, quarterly reviews of personnel transactions, and policies to prioritize client orders for manual trades), requires use of a single custodian, and participates in a third‑party referral program.

Financial Empowerment

Working in the investment industry since 2007, I've seen the good, bad and everything in-between when it comes to financial advice. A good adviser can add years to a successful retirement and prevent costly, sometimes devastating financial errors. Fortunately there are many good advisers out there (especially in the XY Planning Network). Unfortunately, there is also plenty of bad advice from unqualified advisers out there. It can be hard to tell the difference. That can be an expensive lesson. My dad's experience with an adviser in the early 2000s lost him $400,000. I wrote about it here: https://empowermenttools.net/my-dad-lost-400000-heres-what-i-did-about-it/ I started Financial Empowerment to be different. As a devoted Christ-follower I help people steward the financial blessings God has put in their hands. As a fee-only fiduciary, my goal is simple: to help you reach yours. If you're wrestling with multiple competing goals, I'll help you prioritize what to focus on first. I believe in honesty and following through on promises. Finances can seem complicated, but they don't have to be. Ideas that build wealth are often intuitive if explained in plain English. As a CFP® professional and CFA charterholder, I've devoted my career to pursuing the frontiers of investment management and financial planning knowledge. My aim is to provide the highest quality service for clients, on a level that I would accept for my own family. Clients I tend to work best with are 45 - 60 years old, making $200K or more per year, with no or low debt outside of their mortgage. I'm based in McKinney, Texas (Dallas-Ft. Worth metro area) but originally from Denver, Colorado. When I'm not building financial plans you can find me playing basketball or doing art projects with my 10-year old daughter or on the mats practicing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Kenpo Karate.

Find your advisor

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. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.

Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
