Biography

After obtaining my accounting degree, I specialized in preparing income taxes. A few years later, in 1989, I began financial planning. I use my tax knowledge to help clients minimize their taxes long-term while planning for retirement, college needs, and for their goals and dreams. Using third-party money managers, I manage investments with an eye on risk tolerance and asset allocation. I review life and long-term care concerns. Estate planning includes beneficiary reviews, consideration of trusts, and planning for your legacy desires.  I am all about educating clients and have a strong desire to empower women to take control of their financial lives through the development of long-term relationships.

Primary Firm SEC Registration

This SEC-registered firm can serve clients nationwide. Some states may require the firm to submit a notice filing if the firm has more than 5 clients or a physical office there. You can view these state-level filings under the section titled "State Registrations and Notice Filings".

Why is a state registration marked "Terminated"? When a firm registers with the SEC (usually after managing $100M+ AUM), it often withdraws separate state firm registrations unless required by that state. The firm can still serve clients there through its individually registered Investment Advisor Representatives (IARs).

State Registrations and Notice Filings

Listed states reflect where the advisor is authorized to serve clients under state regulations.

IAR

means the advisor is registered as an Investment Advisor Representative in this state and is authorized to provide investment advice to clients there.

indicates the advisor is registered as a Registered Representative in this state, allowing them to offer securities such as stocks, bonds, and mutual funds through a broker-dealer.

Don't see your state listed? The advisor may still be able to work with you under the federal De Minimis Rule, which allows up to five investment advisory clients in a state without registration. Some states, like TX, LA, NE, and NH, may still require registration or notice filing. Contact the advisor or their firm to confirm their investment advisory availability in your state. Note: This rule does not apply to broker-dealer activity.
