Founder 

It all started in college getting my first batch of credit
cards and not knowing the consequences set me up for a rough patch. On top of that getting a student loan made things even worse. With no real personal finance education, I ended up throwing all caution to the wind.

 

After experiencing credit card bills, car payments, student loan balance, job loss, and living back with my parents at 22, something had to change. I took a hard look at where I was headed and decided I had to make some serious changes. My godmother that worked for a financial firm gave me my first introduction when she had me start a Roth IRA. Over the last 23 years I’ve married theory with experience to transform my life, and I look forward to bringing those hard-earned lessons to help anyone willing to put in the work to get through their financial trauma.  Yes, believe it or not many of us have financial trauma, whether it was pass down from generation to generation, you developed it as you were growing up, now is the time to break the curse.

Here Is My Why

After going through my own financial trauma and struggles, I realized there is a lack of personal finance education and guidance available to all people. My personal experience inspired me to learn more about personal finance and develop the expertise necessary to help others overcome their financial trauma.

My mission is to help people achieve financial freedom, stability, and security. I want to be the person that I wish I had in my corner when I was struggling financially. I believe that by educating and empowering individuals and families with practical and effective financial strategies, we can create a ripple effect that transforms entire communities.

I am committed to being a trusted partner, helping my clients develop personalized personal finance goals that fit their unique needs. Through a combination of coaching, education, and accountability, I aim to equip my clients with the tools they need to make informed financial decisions and achieve their dreams.

My goal is to help as many people as possible to achieve financial success, and I am dedicated to making a positive impact in the lives of the individuals and families I serve.
