What do you wish more people understood about financial planning?
I wish more people understood that financial planning can be an enlightening process rather than an intimidating chore. The goal of planning is not to create a measuring stick to be judged by. Planning should help you define and prioritize what is important to you and create a path to help you achieve it.
What does “better” mean to you?
To me, “better” boils down to living with intention. Whether personally or professionally, better is examining the options and making a choice that you never have to second guess because you know you made the best decision with the information available.
What’s one small thing that makes your day better?
Good coffee!
Where would we find you on a sunny Saturday?
Boating around the Salish Sea with friends, family, and Albert, our Havanese pup.
Who would you most like to have coffee with (real or fictional)?
Tressie McMillan Cottom: the Macarthur Genius Grant winning sociologist and writer, and fellow Libra, whose work focuses on race, gender, and education.
