As a fee-only financial planner, my focus is to offer unbiased financial advice to help you achieve your life goals. - Patrice Cresci, CFP®
Fee-Only Financial Planner serving clients locally in the San Francisco Bay Area and virtually across the country.

Patrice Cresci is a fee-only CFP® professional providing objective financial planning and investment management services as a fiduciary. She specializes in financial planning for working mothers, busy executives and other professionals, and those nearing retirement. At Team Hewins, we collaborate with your CPA, attorney, and other professionals to help coordinate your financial life. Because we are looking to form long-term relationships with clients, we generally charge an ongoing asset-based fee that covers all of our financial and investment management work. Additionally, we work with professionals who are still actively building their wealth and have a different pricing approach for those situations
Patrice Cresci, CFP® with over 16 years of experience— I help my clients navigate their financial situation through comprehensive financial planning. Saving and investing were fundamental parts of my upbringing--from saving half my allowance to receiving Roth IRAs as birthday gifts. This early exposure to good financial habits served me well then and also does now as I guide clients in their personal financial journeys. Learn more about Patrice Cresci...
