Working with a trusted financial planning team can lead to less stress, more time, and higher lifetime returns.
Is your financial situation becoming more complex? Are you missing out on growth or tax savings by self-managing your money? Do you want to spend less time thinking about money and more time focused on what matters most to you?
We're here to help.
The first step is booking a discovery call. Don't worry – it's quick, easy, and free. We'll use this time to learn more about your financial planning goals, explain our services and process, and answer any questions you have about working with our team.
We help individuals, families, and businesses who want to protect, grow, and enjoy their hard-earned savings while spending less time worrying about money.
Our clients come from diverse backgrounds, including university professors and administrators, healthcare leaders, founders, and business executives.
We focus on ongoing, comprehensive wealth management. To maintain our high standards of service and value, we are best suited to serve individuals and families with at least $1,000,000 in investable assets.
We believe financial planning is a personal and lifelong process, not a one-time event. Our advisory team is here to help you reach future goals while also living life more abundantly today.
We leave no stone unturned, and our plans are tailored to you. That’s why we work together throughout the planning process and follow a detailed set of steps along the way.
We chat over coffee (or Zoom) regarding your needs and situation, while providing an overview of our process and services. And, along the way, we want you to ask as many questions as you have so you can feel confident as we move forward together.

We are a fee-only financial planning firm. That means our success is measured exclusively by yours. We do not sell third-party products or accept commissions — ever.
We don't have shareholders; we have stakeholders: our clients. They are our only source of revenue.
Our annual fee is equal to 1% of investable assets under management for the first $2,000,000 managed. The blended fee gradually decreases to 0.25% for all assets above $10,000,000.
The management fee includes all ongoing, comprehensive financial planning and investment management services.
Because we focus our expertise on providing ongoing, comprehensive wealth management, we are best suited to serve people with at least $1,000,000 in investable assets under our management.

Our management fee includes all ongoing, comprehensive financial planning and investment management services. There are no hidden or incremental fees at our firm. All clients who meet our minimum requirements receive the same level of personalized, responsive service.
Because we focus our expertise on providing ongoing, comprehensive wealth management, we are best suited to serve clients with at least $1,000,000 in investable assets (excluding real estate) who want to delegate all their financial planning and investment management.
