Biography


My background  I have an MBA in Finance from Georgetown University and an undergraduate degree in Business Administration from Bloomsburg University. I hold the CFP® certification and passed the Series 65 Uniform Investment Adviser exam. I worked as an associate financial advisor and wealth planner for an independent broker-dealer before launching my own practice. I am a member of the XY Planning Network, an international affiliation of independent, Fee-Only financial planners dedicated to providing objective advice on an as-needed basis to people of all income levels. I am also a member of NAPFA. I enjoy spending time with my husband, three children, and two cats (Mario and Daisy), as well as hiking and reading. Contact me today to learn more about how I can help you and to schedule a complimentary Get Acquainted meeting.
