I love the work I do. I'm super thankful for the winding path, from my teller days, personal banking, even working for a sleazy annuity sales guy, and falling into serving tech professionals, before finally launching my own vision for how financial planning should be.

The golden handcuffs are finally off! Never been so happy to receive an email from a client to update me they’ve been laid off. This is a client that’s ready and prepared for retirement and wasn’t enjoying their role so it’s something we’ve been crossing our fingers for.

Excited for crazy tax season. It’s not the most fun thing ever, but I just enjoy the grind of knocking them out and counting them down until they’re 100% completed. If you feel you’re not saving enough on your taxes consider HSA, Dependent FSAs, and retirement contributions.

#Engineering is the most expensive part of many orgs. Yet it often lacks the language to make its case to business. In my ultimate piece for 2024, in @leaddev.com, I hope to bridge that chasm, and help #EngineeringLeadership measure the impact of their big spending. leaddev.com/reporting/ho...

If you’re the kind of person who easily forgets what you’ve accomplished, you need a practice for reminding yourself. Count the years, the finished projects, the progress, the praise, count it all up and use it as evidence against the ever present criticism in your head that you’re not doing enough.
