We Believe...

COMPOUND INTEREST

That compound interest applies to areas beyond our investment portfolios. That good habits, consistency, and patience all positively impact our growth potential, both personally and financially.

GLOBAL IMPACT

That we are best positioned to have a positive impact on the world around us—personally, professionally, and beyond—when we intentionally align our 💲 with our ❤️.

FINANCES

Finances should be functional, that responsible money management can be a tool for creating the life we dream of. Learn more about Our Approach.

LASTING HAPPINESS

Lasting happiness can be achieved when we are able to utilize our dollars to live our most authentic lives. For many of us, this translates to prioritizing our health, relationships, and purpose.
When you’re young, you have time, you have health, but you have no money. When you’re middle-aged, you have money and you have health, but you have no time.When you’re old, you have money and you have time, but you have no health.

HEALTH, TIME, AND MONEY:
THE TRIFECTA IS HAVING ALL THREE AT ONCE.

Our Core Values

Transparent Fees

As true fee-only fiduciaries*, the only payments we receive are flat retainer fees paid to us directly from our clients via quarterly invoices. No hidden or embedded expenses. No kickbacks or commissions. No conflicts of interest. Clients deserve to know their advisor’s all-in costs.

*Our Fiduciary Oath, akin to a doctor’s Hippocratic Oath, means that we act in your best interest even when doing so is contrary to ours.

Comprehensive Planning

Our guidance relies on having a deep understanding of YOUR big picture. Life is not linear and financial plans are not static – we recalibrate your financial life to be aligned to your overarching life goals. Whether it’s proactively managing your cash flow and investments, planning and preparing your annual taxes, analyzing your various personal and professional insurances, or ensuring your estate documents reflect your intentions – we make sure ALL areas of your financial life receive the proper attention.

To be a Force For Good

wHealth Advisors’ top priority is to provide the highest quality, objective financial planning to our clients – no exception. Additionally, we recognize that society’s most challenging problems cannot be solved by government and nonprofits alone. By harnessing the power of business, we use our technical skills, resources, and profits as a means to a greater end. See more about our community engagement, pro-bono services, and financial commitments here.

    Today, as co-founder of wHealth Advisors, I find immense fulfillment in knowing that we use our platform as a force for good. As a firm, we’re founded on the industry’s highest standards for ethics and transparency while also offering pro-bono services to those in need. Financially, we donate a portion of our gross revenue annually to qualified 501(c)3 organizations (which are nominated + voted on by our clients). Personally, though, I find the greatest satisfaction in helping my clients gain financial peace of mind through prudent money management. Prudent money management is like a positive feedback loop: when we are no longer burdened by finances, other dimensions of our lives also tend to improve. As we continue to grow we realize that as important as money is, those other dimensions of life are equally (if not more!) important. As modern philosopher Naval Ravikant reminds us: “The three big ones in life are wealth, health, and happiness. We pursue them in that order, but their importance is reverse. A calm mind, a fit body, and a house full of love. These things cannot be bought.” My life’s mission has been dedicated to helping others use money to close the gap between who they are today and the best version of themselves that awaits ahead. I am excited to meet you and look forward to the opportunity of working together on your journey to financial independence!
