About Me: Real Experience for Real Life Challenges

I’ve been married for over 40 years, and I know firsthand how money can test a relationship. My partner and I, like many couples, have faced financial stress, disagreements, and big life transitions. That lived experience—along with what I’ve observed in family, friends, and clients—shapes the way I help couples today. I understand how financial conflict can strain trust, and I know how powerful it can be when partners learn to face money challenges as a team.

​

My background also includes more than 35 years in business and technology leadership. I worked with organizations navigating rapid change, competing priorities, and high-stakes financial decisions. That experience helps me support individuals who are dealing with career shifts, retirement planning, or the pressure of managing complex financial responsibilities on their own.

​

Whether you’re a couple in conflict or an individual seeking peace of mind, you’ll find a safe, judgment-free space with me. Together, we’ll uncover what’s really driving your financial stress and build strategies that align with your values and goals.​
