Hi, I'm Anthony – a CFP® and father of three who specializes in helping successful professionals turn scattered financial decisions into a coordinated wealth-building strategy. You're doing well, but between stock options, tax planning, debt payoff, and investment choices, there are too many moving pieces to navigate without the right financial partner. I started Dynamic Financial Planning because I watched too many successful professionals struggle with this. Traditional AUM models ignore you during your most critical wealth-building years, leaving you to figure it out alone when the stakes are highest. The Dynamic Approach is different: ✔ Human-first planning that meets you where you are – progress over perfection, always. Your financial house gets built with architecture designed for your real life, not some textbook scenario. ✔ Purpose-driven strategy that starts with your "why." When we're clear on what you're building toward, every decision becomes easier. We invest early and often because your dreams can't wait for perfect timing. ✔ Complete wealth architecture whether you're breaking free from debt to build serious assets or protecting substantial wealth for your family's future. ✔ True partnership that delivers what you really want: optimized returns, protected wealth, and the confidence to actually enjoy your success instead of constantly worrying about it. The result? You sleep better knowing your financial foundation is solid, and your family's future is secure. I'm easy going and enjoy working with people virtually or in-person at times that are convenient for them. At the end of the day, my goal is to earn your trust and build you the financial house that you deserve.

My name is Alex and I provide fee-only ongoing-subscription and flat-fee project based financial planning and advisory services to mid-career professionals & retirement plan consulting services to business owners and plan sponsors. As your financial advocate, we help you navigate the increasing complexity of the financial markets and regulations with a customized strategy, tracking your progress and making adjustments as your needs and goals change. I have 21+ years of experience in the financial industry and held roles in trading, financial product distribution, private banking, and wealth management. I graduated with a business degree from the Eller College of Management at The University of Arizona and also am a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ certificant and Certified Investment Management Analyst® designee. My office is located in downtown Phoenix, AZ and I work with clients in-person and remotely across the United States.

Throughout my career, I quickly became the "go-to" resource for colleagues, family, and friends needing financial advice and guidance. Through my desire to educate, bring transparency to financial services, and help others succeed, I founded Objective Wealth. I differentiate by servicing those seeking a fiduciary planner who provides a tax-focused comprehensive approach, objective insight, and level of service that will guide you to identify and help achieve your goals. I completed my Masters of Business Administrator at Thunderbird School of Global Management and attended Michigan State where I received my bachelor's degree. Prior to financial planning, I spent many years in the education services business. I was involved with designing learning tools, education technology, and delivering services to classrooms throughout the country. I grew up in a family of educators and providing education is an essential part of my values. In my free time, you can find me hiking, camping, cooking, and scuba diving. Gina and I enjoy traveling and spending time with our dog, Murphy.

Townsend Financial’s typical clients are successful, high income/high net worth individuals with a complex financial life. They don’t have the time to manage their finances.

If this sounds like you, here’s how we can help: BUSINESS OWNERS share similar concerns: *How much do I set aside for taxes? *How much should I pay myself? *My cash flow is uneven, how do I make my business and personal life feel stable? *How do I effectively use my business profits for a rewarding life / business scenario? *Should I delegate by hiring others? *Which operating costs make sense to keep – and which to cut? *What kind of retirement accounts should I have? *What benefits should I offer my employees? *And how do all my business decisions impact my tax planning and financial goals? We work together to answer your questions and set you up for success. HNW INDIVIDUALS share the complex concerns of making the right moves with the resources they have: *What is a smart distribution strategy? *How much can I take a year? *Do my investments align with my goals? *Am I saving as much in taxes as I can? *Do I have the right insurance? We'll create a sustainable plan for true financial freedom. BIO: I’m physically located in sunny Scottsdale, Arizona, but I work virtually with clients all around the country.

At Pro Path Financial, we live by one mantra: Goals, Plan, Assets – in that order. We begin by obtaining a complete understanding of your most cherished goals and move on through the process once we have a strong comprehension of what you want to achieve. We then build a plan that achieves those goals, which includes an estimate of how much capital you will need. Lastly, we manage and accumulate assets to support the plan that is intended to achieve your goals. Read Thatcher's blog here: https://www.propathfinancial.com/blog

I started in the advice business in 2012 as an intern at First Allied Securities. Lucky for me, I got to see the inside of a lot of classic wealth management firms - how the sausage was made. Fast forward to 2016, I've worked a few years in the industry, but I'm not happy with my trajectory; I want to write my own story. A couple of industry guys create a platform called XY Planning Network, seemingly tailor-made for me & my dreams. I want to serve the next generation of clients in a fair & transparent way, and I'd like to do it on my own terms. XYPN's little push, their "Yes, you can do this" at the September 2016 conference in San Diego, was the catalyst for launching my firm, Montebello Avenue Limited Company, which went live in February 2017. Today, my firm serves 50+ clients locally & throughout the country. I couldn't be more proud of our clientele or more hopeful about the future of the firm.
