I walked away from it all at the peak of my career - so I can help you find yourself through financial freedom.
Growing up in a rural community of 4,000 people, I could never imagine where I’d be today. My idyllic childhood was a blend of riding horses, learning cake decorating in 4-H, and witnessing people give selflessly despite having little themselves. But beneath the surface, my town faced violent crime rates four times the national average and had a wildly high teen pregnancy rate. This duality shaped my understanding of life and money.
Luckily, I had hit the jackpot with my wonderfully loving parents, who were both teachers and consistently sacrificed everything for my brother and me. At a very tender age, I realized money wasn’t about wealth or amassing ‘things’ – it was a gateway to access freedom, education, and experiences.
At 18, I became financially independent, working multiple jobs while studying finance, thinking it would lead to personal financial success. Despite graduating early with both a bachelor’s and master’s degree in finance, and landing a prestigious Wall Street job, I quickly realized how little I knew about personal finance.
On my first day of work as an investment banker, the most prestigious Wall Street job for new grads, HR asked if I wanted a 401K or a Roth. I had absolutely no idea! I had TWO degrees in finance, had graduated at the top of my class, but did not know the answers to basic personal finance questions. That’s when I realized that the world does not educate people – and especially women – to thrive with their personal finances (luckily, now I’m here to help!).
Later, I became a stock picker at one of the most prestigious investment funds in the country. I loved it. I was a top shareholder in Starbucks, Chipotle, lululemon, Facebook, and many other amazing companies. I met with Howard Schultz, Mark Zuckerberg and Sheryl Sandberg, Tim Cook, and many other household name CEOs. But it came at a cost – 6 days a week in the office, late nights, and lot of time on airplanes, not to mention many extremely toxic cultures. Working through corporate turnarounds resulted in the same grueling hours. I truly enjoyed the work; however, I always felt a twinge that I wasn’t providing a better and broader impact to the world, and that troubled me.
At 36, as Chief Financial Officer of a $100 million fintech company, I felt a calling to a greater purpose: empowering women to achieve financial freedom so they could live the life they’ve always dreamed of. With my hard-earned “F**k You Fund” I made a life-changing pivot to dedicate myself to this mission.
Any woman in any financial situation can do what I did – and I will teach you how.
Let me show you how to organize your life financially so you can truly live the life you’ve always dreamed of.
