Navigating retirement is one of life's biggest transitions, which is why you shouldn't face it alone. I founded Slalom Wealth in 2018 to help people like you overcome the unknowns of retirement and achieve the clarity, confidence, and support you deserve. I wanted to apply my 20+ years of financial experience to build an independent, fee-only firm that puts relationships first and guides clients through the challenges of retirement. As your financial partner, nothing is off the table. I want to be your first call when you're facing a tough question or new opportunity. As a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ and a Chartered Financial Analyst® (CFA®), I have a deep commitment to the technical side of finances. But I also have a passion for helping you simplify the complex, answer the right questions, and understand your options so that you can fully enjoy retirement. I proudly live and work as a fiduciary financial advisor in Sacramento, California alongside my wife, Barbara. When I’m not working, you’ll probably find me: Riding my Peloton bike or boating on the Sacramento River Watching a Formula One race (I travel each year to watch one live!)
