About

Impact Financial is a fee‑only investment adviser that provides wealth management, financial planning, investment management, and tax‑preparation services to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), trusts, estates, and small business owners. The firm manages roughly $25.8 million for a small client base and is supported by two advisors who deliver tailored advisory relationships.

The firm’s investment approach is grounded in Modern Portfolio Theory and implemented with a factor‑based, smart‑beta framework that emphasizes low‑cost mutual funds and ETFs while retaining the flexibility to use individual securities and outside managers when appropriate. Financial planning is offered on ongoing, project‑based, or hourly terms and explicitly includes a Cross Border Financial Analysis for clients who live, work, or invest outside the United States.

What is distinctive about Impact Financial compared with many peers is its meaningful non‑U.S. client presence and an articulated cross‑border planning service, an uncommon feature among supported firms. The advisory team also holds advanced planning credentials (including CFP®, CEPA®, and a Global Financial Planner Fellow designation) and coordinates tax preparation via third‑party specialists as part of its broader service offering.

Impact Financial

Brett founded Impact Financial after spending nearly a decade working at some of the largest Registered Investment Advisory firms in the country. Brett held a variety of investment, tax, financial planning and business consulting roles, which contributes to his comprehensive approach that he maintains today. During this time, Brett saw that there was a need for services tailored to each individual/family, considering businesses/private assets and tax complexities as well as opportunity to add more meaning to investments through impact investing (aligning investments with values). Brett founded Impact Financial to offer this comprehensive approach and to help people make the impact they want, not only once they’ve accumulated savings, but before and while accumulating assets as well. Brett earned an undergraduate and master’s degree in personal financial planning from University of Illinois and Texas Tech University, respectively. After graduation, Brett earned his CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNERTM (CFP®) designation and his Certified Exit Planning Advisor designation (CEPA). In his free time, Brett loves to catch a Cubs game or great concert. Brett and his wife, Jenny, also love being outdoors on a bike ride, a run or trying to learn to sail. Brett and Jenny currently split their time between Boston and Chicago.

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.
