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.
