About

Hello! I'm Shannon, a bilingual (Eng/Spn) Advice-Only CFP® practitioner. I'm here to help you create a clear path towards your life goals and a sense of financial freedom through values-aligned financial planning.

I have worked with clients across a variety of career fields, from tech and solopreneurs to educational institutions, such as the UC system and public employees working for federal, state and local governments.

My clients come from all walks of life, and I am particularly passionate about supporting those typically left out of money conversations and economic power, eg. women and BIPOC. I specialize in working with first generation wealth builders, like myself, who want to change their financial family trees, as well as those who want to go above and beyond reaching financial freedom for themselves to invest responsibly, support their communities in creative and meaningful ways, and to help close the wealth gap.

I'm here to help you know, feel and do better with your money, and to help you make your money work harder for you in support of your goals, the life you want for yourself, and the impact you want to have on the world around you.

Examples of who I work well with:

  • First Generation Wealth Builders
  • Progressive, impact-oriented professionals, consumers and investors
  • Individuals, couples, LGBTQIA and non-traditional households
  • Working professionals & business owners
  • Tech employees & employer equity recipients
  • Charitably inclined folks
  • FIRE aspirers
  • Spanish speakers & First-Generation Americans

I work with clients in San Diego, as well as nationwide via virtual meetings.

Warmer provides personalized recommendations and introductions to independent fiduciary advisors. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

Each advisor listed on our site is an independent fiduciary responsible for their own advice. Warmer may receive fees from advisors for participation or referrals; these fees are paid by advisors and do not affect the fees clients pay for advisory services.

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before entering into an advisory relationship.
