As a young girl, I did not worry about money; my parents had full time jobs & were good at saving. I never had to worry that if something happened to one of them, they wouldn’t be able to care for us as a family. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to have that same security & peace of mind with extended family. About 10 years ago, my great Aunt was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease & needed 24/7 care i
n a nursing home. Things went well for about 2 years, but over time money dwindled to nothing & my grandma was searching for every penny to keep my Aunt at the facility that was keeping her safe & alive. This caused much heartbreak & tension in our extended family. Within a couple of years, my once happy family had been torn apart from one crisis; running out of money due to an unexpected event. Now as a financial advisor, I see families that desire to feel secure in their lives & want to achieve big dreams, but are one crisis away from derailing it all. My purpose is to be prepared no matter what comes your way. Most of my clients are highly motivated individuals & business owners; they are notorious for doing it all, often missing important financial decisions that will significantly impact their future. Something has changed; they feel driven to reevaluate their future, but their lack of financial expertise & experience causes them to feel unsure & overwhelmed over what to do next. They simply want to feel more in control, to know they have protected their future & have a clear path forward. Whether these individuals are married or single, retiring or inheriting wealth, they come to me with three main concerns! Have I done enough to prepare for those unexpected events? Can I continue my lifestyle? How can I feel confident now & in my future? In my process, we first clearly determine what your values & dreams are, we then evaluate how effectively your money is working towards priorities and dreams. Then, we build a tailored plan with a clear investment strategy that strategically balances your need for growth, income & protection. Next, we implement this process while continually updating & adapting to keep pace with your life as we watch your future flourish & your legacy continue. Everyone has a story and a dream, I want to know yours!
