WHAT I DO: I help Locum Tenens physicians and advanced practice providers gain clarity about their finances, identify opportunities and pitfalls, and stay on track with a trusted accountability partner. WHY IT MATTERS: Three recurring concerns stand out in my conversations with Active Duty Military and Civilian physicians and advanced practice providers: Skill Atrophy – Concerns about staying clinically sharp and staying competitive due to limited patient volume or exposure to diverse clinical settings. Financial Catch-Up – After years of training, many feel the pressure to fast-track savings and build long-term financial security. Time Flexibility – A deep desire for greater control over one’s schedule to prioritize family, entrepreneurship, or personal goals. These pressures often lead physicians to pursue Locum Tenens work—part-time or full-time—for its higher earning potential and flexible structure. But with that flexibility comes greater financial complexity, making a clear strategy and support system more important than ever. HOW I DO IT: Together, we assess your strengths and gaps across the six pillars of financial planning: Cash Flow Management, Risk Management, Estate Planning, Tax Strategy, Retirement Planning, and Investment Management. Then, we develop action items over 3 months to strengthen your financial foundation. Clients are empowered to self implement recommendations or collaborate with us for efficiency and accountability.

MORE ABOUT ME: I rediscovered my love for running three years ago thanks to one of my sons, starting with local 5Ks around the San Francisco Bay Area. Since then, I’ve become especially fond of the half-marathon distance, with races like the Oakland and San Francisco Half under my belt. Marathon training is next on the horizon, and I’m looking forward to the challenge. I also love exploring new places—favorites so far include Ilocos Sur (Philippines), Tokyo, Seoul, Busan, Barcelona, Lisbon, and London.

Much like you don't wait to join a gym until you're healthy, you shouldn't wait to work with a financial planner until you're wealthy. Unfortunately, the financial industry historically only wants to work with clients who have <insert any seven-digit-minimum amount of assets>. The good news is there are now plenty of financial planners who will gladly work with clients regardless of how much they have already saved. I am one of those planners. ;) I've been a financial planner for over a decade now, and I've worked lots of different clients from all walks of life. I've come to learn that sticking to the basics and keeping things simple is the best approach when helping clients develop a financial plan. My role is to help guide you on your path to financial freedom. New clients start with a financial plan. This is where we talk about your goals, time horizon, and all the numbers. We’ll review different scenarios so you can see what’s possible. By the end of the initial plan, you should be up and running, moving in the general direction of your goals. In six months (or sooner, if you prefer), we’ll meet to review how things are going and make any needed adjustments. From there on, we’ll talk about any future meetings that may be beneficial.

I specialize in growing families that work in the medical and technology industries. My wife has worked as a physician since 2013, so I'm familiar with the challenges that those in the industry face. Geographically, we are located in the Bay Area, so my practice has naturally become split between medical professionals as well as those working at tech companies, with a significant portion coming from Google.

I'm a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ and founder of Collabria Capital, Inc., a San Ramon-based fee-only fiduciary financial planning firm serving the Bay Area and virtual clients nationwide. I started Collabria Capital because I believe financial planning should be collaborative, transparent, and centered around what truly matters — people’s lives, not just their portfolios. Over the years, I’ve met too many hardworking professionals who’ve done all the “right” things financially but still feel unsure about their future. My goal is to bring clarity and confidence to that picture. Originally from Montreal, I moved to the Bay Area in 1997 and quickly came to appreciate the unique blend of innovation, opportunity, and complexity that defines life here. Having raised three kids, I understand firsthand how financial priorities evolve — from career growth and family needs to preparing for a more flexible, fulfilling next chapter. I work primarily with mid- to late-career professionals who want straightforward, fiduciary advice on everything from stock options and deferred compensation to retirement and tax planning. My approach is simple: listen carefully, bring clarity to complexity, and help clients make decisions that align their finances with their values. Outside of work, I enjoy playing guitar, exploring new trails, and spending time with those I care about. For me, financial planning has always been about more than numbers — it’s about creating the freedom to focus on what truly matters.
