I’m Melissa, founder of Fidela Wealth. I hold CFP® and CIMA® designations, and I’ve spent the last 13 years guiding clients through high-stakes financial transitions with precision and care. At Fidela, I work with: -Families navigating legacy planning, education funding, long-term care, or supporting loved ones with special needs. -Business owners seeking tax efficiency, transition planning, or coordinated advice across teams. -Entertainment professionals managing income variability, loan-out entities, pension structures, and privacy concerns. My job is to bring order to complexity, no jargon, no confusion. Just clear, personalized advice and disciplined financial strategy. I don’t sell products, and I don’t take shortcuts. As a fiduciary, I work exclusively in your best interest. If you’re facing a turning point or simply want to feel more confident about your financial future, I’m here to help you move forward with clarity and integrity.

It's my mission to make sure that all streamers learn how to run their businesses and manage their personal finances. I want to help you transition from an accidental business owner to someone who acts with intention and knowledge. Most of us weren't taught those skills in school. I see so much potential in all of you and I don't want something as manageable as taxes get in your way. I couldn't find any traditional planning firms working with streamers so I went out and started my own. I have always had an obsession with video games. WoW basically consumed my college life. When I moved halfway across the country for a new job I found my friends in the StarCraft club at work. I watch professional DotA 2 and StarCraft whenever I can. My current addiction is Rimworld. For the credentials: I'm a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ Professional and have my MBA in personal financial planning. Additionally, I write for StreamerSquare as well as my own blog.

At Bridge The Gap we purposefully choose to work with a small number of clients per advisor, so each client’s situation can be served as a priority. This provides clients with a partnership that goes deeper into your financial planning needs. Our goals is to be the go to for all things financial, and to be your accountability partner in implementation. Many advisors draft clients a plan, but we work to together to live it. We have ongoing planning conversations with our clients around investments, risk management, liquidity analysis, estate planning, tax planning, tax efficiency, and goal fulfillment.

I was born and raised in the San Fernando Valley in LA. I spent a few years away while at San Diego State University. After graduating, I spent nearly nine months in Israel working odd jobs and enjoying time with my friends and family. I came back to LA in 2014 where I got my first "real" job at a large insurance and investment firm. I got licensed as a financial advisor in 2015, which allowed me to focus full time on financial planning and investment management. I earned my CFP® certification in 2017, and soon after in 2018, I decided it was time to start my own firm. I wanted to leave the whole corporate structure behind and work with the clients who I wanted to work with. I was tired of various sales quotas and metrics. I knew I could offer better and completely unbiased service by having my own firm. Let's connect so I can now learn more about you!
