Biography


Blue Spark Capital Advisors -- based in New York City and the Berkshires -- is a fiduciary fee-only RIA, providing investment management and holistic financial planning for women going through life transitions such as divorce, death of a spouse or parent, retirement, or job change.  Our investment philosophy centers on a logical method of diversification and rebalancing, keeping in mind that trying to time markets does not work for long-term growth of wealth. We guide our clients to invest according to their personal goals, balancing risk and return for their own situations. We help take the emotion out of investing by offering a disciplined and diversified approach to investing.  By considering all of our clients’ needs as a whole, we as financial planners are able to provide comprehensive service and support to help them reach their goals.
