I began my financial career working as a bank teller during spring breaks and summers while at college. Always strong with numbers, this role introduced me to the importance of developing trusting relationships and delivering superior client service. I have put these skills to work for both institutional and private offices, advising clients and constructing investment portfolios for the past 10 years. In 2014, I formed Everlong Financial in Austin, Texas. My goal was to create a financial planning practice that integrates my investment experience with technology of today. I strongly believes that everyone can benefit from having a formal financial plan in place. As a young professional, I know this is especially true for those just growing into their careers and wealth. In 2009, I married my wife Elizabeth in the mountain town of Asheville, North Carolina. Together with our three children, we enjoy walking the trail around Lady Bird Lake. I am an avid runner and I challenge myself to run 100 miles in the heat of July each year. Living in the "Live Music Capital of the World," I enjoy live music and searching for vinyl LPs to broaden my music collection. I graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a B.S. in Psychology. I obtained the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ certification in June 2009.

It all started over a decade ago. I found my love for financial planning by asking my friends a simple question out of curiosity, "how do you personally manage your money and invest?". I realized something very important: not only did a lot of people not know if they were managing their money correctly, they didn't even know where to begin finding the confidence in their strategy (if they had one at all). I quickly learned how much I love helping people better understand where their money can take them. I particularly have a passion for the markets and investing which DIY traders and investors have appreciated. For the past decade, I’ve helped them navigate the financial markets with less emotion and more skill. After all, your investing portfolio is the vehicle that drives you to your goals. However, while you're portfolio is important, one thing I teach a lot is how much a healthy financial life goes beyond just that. I have expertise far beyond the markets and investing. As a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional, I can help with cash flow & insurance planning, proactive tax strategy, retirement & legacy planning, asset protection, business planning and more. It's important to have every aspect of your financial life optimized for max peace of mind. Whether you're a DIY trader or investor, a business owner, or a corporate professional taking on stock-based compensation risk, I can help you balance your desire to take on the risk you want with successfully reaching your goals. I’m also the author of the book “Do THIS With Your Money”, making trusted financial education more accessible.

I am the CEO and Founder of Momentum Private Wealth Management. Founded in 2019, Momentum Private Wealth is an Austin Texas based, independent fee-only wealth management firm. I have over 20 years experience working in the financial investment and planning industry. I first began my career in finance by joining one of the biggest mutual fund companies in the world in a customer service role, and as they say, it was all downhill from there. I quickly moved into more seasoned roles, and with a location change to the San Francisco Bay Area, I moved into the Private Wealth Management side of the business. It was there I found my true love for helping individuals with their wealth management and financial planning needs. Over the next 10 years I had the opportunity to work for two smaller RIA firms where I eventually decided to start my own firm here in the heart of Austin, Texas. The core focus of Momentum Private Wealth Management is to provide transparent and focused investment and financial planning services to individuals and families who are looking to demystify the world of finance. I graduated from the University of California Santa Cruz in 2004 and I obtained the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ designation in August of 2011.

At Ridley Wealth Management, our mission is to help clients enjoy their wealth with gratitude, wisdom, and generosity. I founded the firm after more than a decade in financial services, driven by a desire to integrate wise stewardship and faith into every financial decision. As a fee-only fiduciary, my role is simple: to provide clear advice, manage investments with discipline, and design financial plans that give families peace of mind. Outside the office, my wife Lauren and I are raising two great kids, Georgia and David, along with Molly, our Springer Spaniel who lives for bird season. We serve families in Round Rock, TX; Cedar Park, TX; Leander, TX, and the Greater Austin area — and virtually across the country.

As a comprehensive financial adviser with a unique specialization in equity compensation, my mission is to guide you toward achieving your best life. Throughout my career as an adviser, I have seen how impactful the right advice can be. From an early age, I saw my parents struggle with finances, and I wanted to change that. As a paperboy at age 11, I wanted to know the best way to handle my money and took an interest in financial planning. I also realized that there was an opportunity to help. I earned my undergraduate degree in Business Logistics and my MBA in Management Science, with Honors, from Penn State. While working in logistics for Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway, I received my first stock options and restricted shares. This created a strong interest in stock options and I wanted to know more so I could help others with theirs. While working for the railroad, I completed my CFP® professional education. A few years ago, I realized that people receiving significant equity or stock compensation are often given cookie cutter advice as it relates to their goals. I chose to earn my CPWA® to better serve high net worth individuals, and specifically those with stock compensation. I continue to learn, teach, and lead other advisers to provide higher quality advice to stock compensation recipients. I decided to start Ubequity because I realized that many people, including experienced financial advisers, don’t fully understand the opportunity for impact provided by stock compensation. I enjoy taking you from seeing stock compensation as an investment, or a mystery, to understanding it, using it as a tool to retire, spend time with family, travel, buy property, support charities, pay off debt, and live your best life. In my free time, I enjoy going on adventures with my wife, two kids and our dog and cat. (Although more of a dog lover, I have learned to love our cat too.) Over the years I have enjoyed giving my time to a wide range of causes including Boy Scouts, our church, as a Founding Travel Director and licensed coach for youth soccer, and as a fundraising member of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society Team in Training. Outside of work, I can be found training for triathlons, reading and listening to books, hiking, kayaking, canoeing, cheering on Penn State Football and travelling. I truly enjoy helping people reach their goals through financial planning and maximizing stock compensation benefits. I look forward to working with you to achieve your best life.

I’m Zach Thomas, founder and steward of Growth Horizons Wealth Management, based in Georgetown, TX. As a fee‑only, fiduciary advisor, our team empowers small business owners, high-net-worth individuals, and retirees to build purposeful lives through thoughtful, technology-forward wealth planning—because financial success should fuel what matters, not distract from it. My journey began after witnessing my grandfather’s financial struggles following his business exit. That experience—combined with the values of my parents (a teacher and postal worker)—shaped my mission to prevent others from suffering the same. I launched my career at Wells Fargo, built a wealth-management department at Cadence Bank, and refined my approach at Heritage Family Offices before launching my practice in July 2023. Outside of work, I’m a devoted husband, proud father to Roman, CrossFit enthusiast, triathlon finisher, aspiring author, lifelong student of the humanities, and active Christian. I believe wealth is about time, freedom, and legacy—not just dollars.
