Transferring your investment accounts is simple and secure thanks to the ACAT system, which moves assets in-kind, meaning nothing is sold or changed during the transfer. I don’t make any changes to your portfolio until you approve a personalized plan built around your goals and tax strategy.
No. I’m a fee-only fiduciary. I don’t sell insurance or investment products and I don’t earn commissions. You pay one flat fee, and that’s the only way I’m paid.
Your money is held at an independent custodian like Charles Schwab or Altruist, in accounts that stay in your name. I act as your advisor with limited authority to manage them on your behalf. I don’t work for the custodian or earn commissions, so every recommendation is made in your best interest.
One flat fee starts at $6,000/year, based on the complexity of your situation. The $6,000 minimum requires $500K+ in annual income or $1M in liquid assets.

The industry standard is a percentage of your assets a year, and as the market rises, the fee quickly outpaces the effort behind it. Worse, it rewards gathering assets over the planning that actually matters.

With a flat fee, I remove that conflict and align pay with the work and value delivered, instead of rewarding asset gathering and unearned market growth. Estimate your fee.
We start with an intro call, you connect your accounts, and I analyze your full picture and show you where you stand and the opportunities you’re missing. I give you a written analysis you can act on, with or without ongoing work together.
