Divorce Financial Expert On Your Side
Divorce Financial Planning, Coaching, and Mediation
When I was young, quite often, my mother wouldn’t let me leave the house without reading at least one article about current events. She wanted me to understand that knowledge wasn’t just something you collected for yourself — it was how you prepared to show up fully, whether at the dinner table, in the boardroom, or any social setting.
That habit shaped the way I approach life — and it’s the same philosophy I bring to my work today. Divorce is one of the most overwhelming conversations you will ever have, especially when it comes to finances. My role is to make sure you walk into every meeting, every negotiation, and every decision informed, prepared, and confident.
I don’t just give you answers — I give you analysis and understanding, because when you understand your facts, you own your power. And when you own your power, you can participate fully and confidently in the decisions that will shape your future.
As a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst® (CDFA®), Certified Divorce Coach, and Family Financial Mediator, I combine over 30 years of financial experience with my own personal journey through divorce and my perspective as a mom. This gives me a unique lens — one that balances technical financial analysis with deep empathy for the emotional and practical realities of divorce.
Your Advocate for Financial Clarity and Family-Focused Solutions - Wherever you are in your divorce process, my mission is to empower you with the financial knowledge and confidence you need to make sound decisions — not just for today, but for the years ahead. As a mom myself, I know this isn’t just about dividing accounts; it’s about creating a financial roadmap that supports your evolving family structure.
How I Help You Move Forward with Confidence
Transform confusion into clarity.
Divorce brings tough financial questions. Will I be able to keep my home? What will my lifestyle look like? Can I provide for my children? I help you answer these questions with clear, personalized guidance so you feel informed and empowered.
Negotiate from a position of strength.
When you understand your full financial picture—your assets, debts, income, and future needs—you can make informed choices instead of emotional reactions. I give you the knowledge and strategies to confidently navigate settlement discussions.
Avoid costly, irreversible mistakes.
Hidden tax consequences, undervalued assets, and rushed agreements can create financial hardship down the road. With my expertise, you can address these issues and secure a fair, sustainable outcome.
A neutral, strategic approach.
Unlike many financial professionals, I don’t sell investment products or insurance. My sole focus is helping you make the best financial decisions for your future. Whether you’re negotiating a settlement or choosing mediation, I provide objective guidance that aligns with your best interests.
Divorce Is Not the End—It Truly is a New Beginning
Right now, everything may feel uncertain, I get that, but you are not alone. The right financial decisions today will set the foundation for your future security and peace of mind. By taking this first step, you are choosing clarity over confusion, empowerment over fear, and strategy over uncertainty. I can't wait to join you in this journey.
