Hello, I’m Gabbi and I help teachers in WA and CA make smart decisions with their money. As a former teacher, I first got into personal finance because I knew I didn’t have a lot of extra money to mess around with. I wanted to put my dollars to work just as hard as I was. While I love teaching and miss my students, I knew I had to help other teachers and people like me figure this out, so I switched careers into finance. As a Certified Financial Planner™ (CFP®), Accredited Financial Counselor (AFC®) and Trauma of Money Certified Practitioner, I believe in taking a holistic approach to your money. We always start the financial planning process by talking about your values so that we can build your financial plan around them to reach your financial goals. We’ll work together to find a good balance between living well now and saving for the future-you. I completed my teaching credential, Master’s in Education, and Bachelor’s in International Relations from UC Davis. When I’m not reading personal finance books or working with clients, I spend my time rock climbing, hula dancing, and learning Spanish.

Mana FLD offers professional financial advice that empowers you to protect and celebrate your hard earned money. We start with our clients' hopes and dreams: getting an intimate view of their values, attitudes, and feelings towards money and its connection to lifestyle. Next comes smart planning: as we work one-on-one with each client to learn your finances inside and out, resulting in deep knowledge sharing, and ongoing support capable of shifting attitudes and building wealth. The outcome is freedom through partnership: our clients are supported to grow, develop and stand strong through life’s transitions, as we build new strategies for self-awareness and personal identity. Throughout the journey, we help turn clients' dreams and goals into reality.

Out of college, I spent a handful of years teaching high school - in New Orleans for 3 years and Spain for 1. When I left the classroom, it was important to maintain the educator's mindset in my next chapter which landed me in the financial advising space. 8 years and 2 firms later, I found my home at Upbeat Wealth where I've been fortunate enough to partner with Mike Turi. We share a strong commitment to a client-centered and in-depth planning process. And we simply love the work we get to do! While the milestones may not be unique, how you approach them will be. You’re advancing through your career, facing a liquidity event, trying to make sense of where all the dollars are going, growing your family, and upsizing your home (along with trying to find the most enjoyment in your day-to-day). A trusted partner can ensure you’re balancing today’s realities with your dreams of tomorrow. Our process integrates money and life so we have better financial conversations. Real conversations. Because life isn’t all about dollars and cents. By uncovering your values and providing education, we can help you create a decision-making framework that ensures your resources are spent purposefully through life’s most beautiful and humbling transitions.
