After spending over 25 years in corporate and local government, I decided to take a leap of faith into entrepreneurship leveraging my accounting and finance background to become licensed as a life insurance agent and Financial Services Professional.
This allowed me to design my schedule around being a newly single mother and the needs of my daughters. Being able to find a profession that aligned my passion of helping others and the love of working with numbers was a blessing.
That decision was made in 2012 and I am thankful to have evolved into the financial practice d/b/a Sounde Financial Group as a tribute and legacy to my father.
In the early stages of my practice, I realized many individuals, business owners and families were not being given the information they needed to make the best financial decisions for them and their families. I began incorporating financial education seminars and workshops into my practice with the hopes of providing clarity and empowerment to those that attended. I found myself gravitating to working with other single mothers, female entrepreneurs and women in transition facing career change, divorce, retirement and widowed.
Throughout the years I expanded to working with small business owners, school districts, counties, cities and villages to provide life insurance and retirement benefits to their employees.
As part of my ongoing effort to add value for my clients, I am certified to offer a unique educational approach to retirement planning called the Macro Asset Perspective®. Whatever stage of life you are in, whether you are working to grow your assets or your assets are working to provide your retirement income, you are likely to glean value from the principles, processes and strategies found in the Macro Asset Perspective®. The Macro Asset Perspective® helps you implement a balanced approach to your personal accumulation & income combining time-tested principles of risk management with sensible strategies for long-term tax-reduction giving you the potential to increase your net spendable income in retirement. While this process was originally developed for a physician’s network on the west coast and high-tech engineers in the Silicon Valley it has been successfully adopted by people of all walks of life and taught at workshops for employees at a number of Fortune 500 companies.
