Biography
Hello, I'm Mark Helm.
I am the founder and principal of Helm Financial Advisors, LLC. I am a Certified Financial Planner™ (CFP), hold a Bachelors Degree in Economics from the University of Minnesota and a Masters Degree in International Affairs from American University. In addition, I also have earned the Enrolled Agent designation from the IRS.
I opened my financial planning practice in 2003 because I felt that too many financial advisors viewed their clients as portfolios rather than as people. While a solid portfolio lies at the heart of any financial plan, it must be integrated with your goals as a person.
As the father of two young girls, I understand that our worth is not measured in dollars and cents. However, as the father of two young girls who will someday need to go to college, I also understand that we can't lose sight of the fact that we must plan for financial future.
When not helping clients or chasing my girls, I enjoy bicycling in Virginia's wine country and helping find homes for rescued dogs.
