What we do.
How we do it.
Unlike 90% of financial advisors, we are a Registered Investment Advisor and we are required to act as your fiduciary and serve your best interests. We do not receive “kick-backs” from the funds we invest in.
NO Commissions – NO hidden incentives.
"One of the things my clients are most surprised with is how high total fees were that they used to be paying and the lack of personal touch."
Sean
Founder of Hathaway Financial
What makes us tick?
Quality Investments
We are obsessed with the highest quality lowest cost investments. Remember, you don’t just pay a fee to your advisor, you pay a management fee to the mutual fund. We put you in ETF index funds that cost 10x less than industry average.
Fixed Management Fee
We charge a flat transparent annual fee of 0.69% of your portfolio. VERY LOW. We charge NO FEE on accounts with less than $100,000. Why? Because we want to encourage investing and learning.
Real-time Financial Advice
We are always a phone call, text or email away on any question you may have. Want to invest in a start-up, refi your house, do some estate planning … just call.
Independent and Objective
We are fee only, no commissions, no selling insurance or annuities. We a a registered RIA and your legal fiduciary.
Latest Technologies
Your investments are secure at Charles Schwab, where the latest and greatest technology is utilized, including phone apps to see your investments real-time.

“I grew up in Oregon, now live in California and have lived in Spain, Mexico and Chile, where I met my wife Lorena. We live in Almaden (South of San Jose). We take pride in supporting our kids schools, extracurricular activities and community. In addition to her full time job as a Marketing Director at Pitney Bowes, Lorena is also a Board Member of Almaden Softball league, certified Yoga instructor and the best mother and wife one could wish for. I want to experience life to the fullest and try to never say “no” to a new adventure. I’m an avid road biker, mountain biker, runner, swimmer (yes I’ve done a lot of triathlons), traveller, huge downhill skier and snowboarder, I have a passion for motocross, and I love to play the piano and guitar. Lately I’ve picked up golf again with entire family. My favorite TV shows are Billions, Ozark, Altered Carbon, and with kids Modern Family. Why Financial Advisor? I get to read, study and talk about the financial world all day long and best of all I know that the work I do every day is making lasting meaningful positive impact on those I work with.
