About
Sweetgrass Financial Planning serves individual clients, some high-net-worth households, and small businesses with a mix of services that include comprehensive financial planning, project-based and hourly engagements, and investment management. The firm provides written financial plans and ongoing advice covering retirement, tax planning, estate considerations, insurance review, employee benefits, and business planning, and, like most independent advisers, charges asset-based fees and does not participate in performance-based or wrap-fee programs.
The firm’s investment approach emphasizes passive portfolio construction—using index mutual funds and ETFs to implement asset-class allocations—while applying fundamental analysis when conducting investment analysis for clients. Unusually for a solo independent adviser, Sweetgrass reports essentially all assets as non-discretionary and requires client authorization before trading, executing orders on an individual-account basis rather than using block trading or discretionary mandates.
Sweetgrass also offers a Quick Start Program and several project-based planning formats intended to educate clients and address a small number of focused questions, reflecting an emphasis on workshops and targeted educational engagements that is less common among peers. The practice is small and closely held, with a single CFP®-certified adviser who also holds Enrolled Agent credentials, which combines financial planning and tax-representation capability for a limited client base.

Not sure where to start?
We'll help you think it through – whether you ultimately need an advisor or not.
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.
