My Passion
I have been in the financial services industry since 1992 – yes, over 30 years! During my time in this field, I have become more and more passionate about helping women with their financial lives as I have seen how impactful it is on both the good side – having the appropriate knowledge, and the bad side – not understanding your financial situation. I have been through a divorce and also helped settle my Dad's estate, and I know that both endeavors are not only emotional but incredibly financially impactful. I started The Time To Flourish (TTTF, LLC) to help women successfully navigate their financial lives during transition and uncertainty.
This is my passion, and I am so grateful I have the opportunity to have a positive impact on women's finances as they go through either situation. I don't want women to just come out the other side; I want them to flourish!
Please see how I can specifically help with divorce finances (Helping with pre- and post-divorce financial decisions) and after-loss services (Helping settle a loved one's estate).
