Hi, I'm Amy - founder of AFT Planning, a fee-only financial planning firm serving clients in the Tampa Bay area and remotely across the US. I work with mid-career professionals who are ready to rethink what a fulfilling life can look like outside the traditional 9-to-5-until-65 path. Maybe you're feeling burnt out, curious about a sabbatical, considering a career change, or working toward financial independence. Whatever's driving the question, I help you build a plan that fits the life you're actually trying to live. My process starts with a strong financial foundation - cash flow, spending, savings, investments, tax strategy, insurance, and estate basics. From there, ongoing planning becomes a year-round thinking partnership: adapting as life evolves, modeling "what if" scenarios, and helping you make confident decisions about work, income, and lifestyle flexibility. I've been in the financial advice industry since 2012 and hold both the CFP® and CFA designations. I work on a fee-only basis with no investment minimums. Outside of work: niche museums, failing upwards at new hobbies, and petting cats.
