Yes. As a fee only advisor we strive to maintain the highest level of ethical and legal standards in the industry.
Fiduciary duty entails always acting in your best interest, even if doing so is contrary to ours. This includes:
• Acting with undivided loyalty and utmost good faith.
• Providing full and fair disclosure of all material facts, defined as those "a reasonable investor would consider to be important."
• Not misleading clients.
• Avoiding conflicts of interest, such as when the advisor profits more if a client uses one investment instead of another or trades frequently, and disclosing any potential conflicts of interest.
• Not using a client's assets for the advisor's own benefit or the benefit of other clients.
I will have no more than 40 clients. That means more time with you!
I provide virtual services so that we aren’t limited by location. So regardless of what state you live in, we’d love the opportunity to serve you. If you live in the San Francisco/Bay Area we would love to meet in person.
I’ve been a financial advisor since 2004, I have my CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ certification (CFP®), and an MBA (Master Business Administration).
