Two kinds of people come to us. Both deserve better than generic advice

Tech & Biotech Executives

You earn well, save well, and still can’t tell if the numbers add up the way you need them to. RSUs, a growing 401(k), a tax bill that feels too high, and a retirement you want on your terms — at 55, not 65. We’ve done this before, specifically for people at companies like yours.

Business Owners

You’ve built something real. The business is doing well — $2M or more in revenue — and you’re starting to think seriously about what comes next: growing it, protecting it, and eventually exiting on your own terms. The financial complexity is significant, the timeline is real, and the stakes are high. We help business owners build a financial plan that keeps pace with the business and prepares for the transition ahead.

Our Process

Our planning process starts where most financial plans don’t — with your life. Through the EVOKE® Life Planning process, we’ll have four meetings over two to three months to build a Financial Life Plan genuinely tailored to you: where you are, where you want to go, and what might get in the way. We continue to meet twice a year to review your plan, track your progress, and refine as life evolves.
