My husband and I HIGHLY recommend Lisa! The relief we currently feel about our finances would not…read morehave been possible without her. We moved across the country, and as a newly married couple, we realized we had very different financial views. Online budgeting tools and apps had never worked for either of us separately in the past. It was causing a great deal of stress, and we wanted to get on the same page ASAP before we were in any financial trouble. We started seeing her in person August 2019, and had our last session with her in November 2020 (through Zoom of course)- so over a year! She was a perfect fit. Lisa helped us get a clear picture of how our money was being spent. She taught us how to use that knowledge to understand and manage our financial situation. Our sessions spanned across several areas- some of which included: personal finance, emotions and beliefs related to money and spending, planning for a buying a house, and even relationship coaching. We were also very impressed by how much she knows about regulations, tax law, and mortgages. It was very obvious she cared about us and wanted us to succeed with our hopes and goals. The relationship was a two-way street; the 3 of us worked together versus her just spewing advice and information at us. She never missed an appointment, was always on time and prepared, and an absolute pleasure to work with. We miss our sessions with her! But she gave us all the tools we need to continue this journey on our own. Thank you so much :) Kristen & John

Living paycheck to paycheck--despite having solid incomes and no kids--was frustrating and stressful. We initially expected to walk away with a simple budget. What we got was so much more. Michelle didn't just organize our numbers--she gave us clarity, confidence, and peace of mind. She removed the fear we had around money and replaced it with a real plan and direction. More importantly, she set us up for long-term success and a stronger financial future. We truly can't recommend her enough.

She has me so much more confident in my financial decisions, especially when she is right there with me when I need to make them. I can definitely say that I am much better off with her than I was without her. I appreciate her so much, and I believe she would never steer anybody wrong. She's a very savvy lady when it comes to financial matters. Give her a call and see for yourself!

Working with Kyle Clark has been a standout experience from start to finish…read more After a deeply frustrating experience with another financial advisor program, I was cautious about starting over, but working with Kyle has been a complete 180. From the start, Kyle was thorough and patient. He walked me through transferring all of my existing funds, helped me establish clear savings goals, and gave me concrete, actionable guidance I could actually act on. What impressed me most was his timing: all of this unfolded during a period of significant personal transition for me, and he handled every step with professionalism and calm. The results have spoken for themselves. My portfolio has reached record highs, and for the first time, I genuinely feel in control of my financial future. If you're looking for an advisor who is competent and steady under pressure, I can't recommend Kyle highly enough!

Which ones do I combine? Am I investing too aggressively or not enough? What the heck is this fund? Nick Licouris did a fantastic job - we met twice, and he mapped out a detailed roadmap for me to get my financial house in order over the next few years, explaining everything in plain English anyone could understand. He confirmed I was headed in the right direction, but also pointed out a few things I was unaware of. He also correctly predicted how many hours it would take, so the cost was no surprise. I am very, VERY pleased with the results and I've recommended him to others and will probably hire him again, once I've executed the plan.

My husband is a musician who does lots of gig/freelance work and we wanted to get professional eyes on our taxes as our situation has become more complex. We had an intro call with Sandy who assured us she could help with our situation. We then decided to take the next step and provided all of our documents within their portal on March 3rd. After submitting we heard nothing back from them for weeks and so we called towards the end of the month to check in. When we did this they only then started asking us for additional documents and wanted us to reformat all profits and losses within their specific document formats despite us already providing these 4 weeks prior in our own format. We asked them if they could just use our existing documents and they said that would be an additional bookkeeper service of $300. At this point we were very frustrated that they took an entire month to tell us all of this after we submitted initial documents. We ended up filing with an alternative.
