Why Level Up Financial Planning
When it comes to your finances and more specifically your life, you deserve someone who will work along side you.
Trust
Trust is the cornerstone of any valuable relationship and the trust that my clients have in me is not taken lightly. It may start initially as a feeling, but throughout the Level Up process, it will be backed up as I work with you to ensure that you are not only on track but Leveling Up as a result of our partnership.
Transparency
Transparency is a critical component of establishing a trusted relationship. As such, I am an open book and provide my pricing directly on my site so you can begin to identify the cost of investing in my services.
Fee-Only Financial Planning
As a fee-only financial planner. I am never paid by an outside party to influence the service you receive. Also, not all financial advisors are financial planner. While financial advisors typically only work with your investments. Financial planners help you plan for your current reality and guides you on how to best achieve your goals.
Expertise That Matters To You
This isn’t general financial advice or rules of thumbs that you can find in a Google search. It’s customized to you and your unique background. I’ve exclusively served tech clients for over 10 years, allowing me to develop expertise on your unique experiences and employer benefits—especially employer stock and tax planning.
Fiduciary
A fiduciary standard is the highest level of care for clients. Being a fiduciary requires that your interest are always at the heart of every plan and recommendation.
Collaboration
The collaboration process is ongoing and is what breathes life into your financial strategy guide. Before I can help you optimize a plan that empowers you to live your best life and be excited about your future, we need dig into what really matters.
