Your Needs are Unique. We Understand.

You have distinct financial challenges and concerns as an academic professional or entrepreneur.

  • Time Constraints: Your demanding schedule leaves little time for financial planning.

  • Complex Finances: Balancing responsibilities, research funds, and personal finances can be overwhelming.

  • Healthy Skepticism: You value transparency, honesty, and a straightforward approach.

  • Need for Simplicity: You prefer clear, concise information that’s easy to understand and act upon.

“I work with some of the world's brightest and most talented academics and researchers..."

“I work with some of the world's brightest and most talented academics and researchers to provide a sound strategy and trajectory that provides a future for their families and guides them through career advancement. I advise clients using data-driven, proactive, and collaborative strategies. My communication is fun and direct. Better proactive with multiple plans than reactive with none.”

—Jon McCardle, President, AIF®
