You’ve worked hard and ascended to a mid-level or senior position at a public (or soon-to-IPO) Bay Area company. You’ve got a bunch of 401(k)s from old jobs, and an alphabet soup of stock compensation: RSUs, NSO, ISO, ESPP.
As a CFP® professional, I believe in an open, collaborative, and non-judgmental approach to exploring your values and goals, and crafting strategies that are customized to YOU.
