My Mission

As a pioneer and nationally recognized expert in the field of divorce financial planning, I launched my business over 25 years ago to correct perceived injustices in the legal system that failed families in the long term. I have worked with thousands of divorces as a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst® and will bring energy, passion and a creative mindset to telling your story.

At its core, divorce is about people and money. Divorce is very personal and many factors influence how you experience the process. Your divorce is intensely subjective: it’s about you, your past, your present and your future. You need to be prepared and informed because you will be making critical decisions with long-lasting consequences when you are feeling most vulnerable. One person can make the difference.
