Managing Partner
Pathlight Advisors
I’m the Managing Partner at Pathlight Advisors, where I help individuals and families navigate their financial journeys with clarity and confidence. A CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER®, CRPC®, and AIF®, I’ve been part of Scottsdale’s finance community since 2001.
I’m honored to be a member of the Retirement Advisor Council and grateful to have been named one of the Top Women Advisors by the National Association of Plan Advisors (NAPA)* from 2018 to 2023, as well as a recipient of the NAPA Top Women of Excellence* award in 2024. Forbes recognized me as a Top Women Wealth Advisor* in 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025, a Top Women Wealth Advisor Best-in-State* in 2025, and a Best-inState Wealth Advisor* in 2025. Forbes also named my team one of Arizona’s Best-in-State Wealth Management Teams* in 2024 and 2025.
Before Arizona, I worked on two presidential campaigns and several congressional races. Today, I’m a published author and podcast host focused on empowering working mothers. My insights have been featured on the Katie Couric Show and in industry publications.
Community is central to my work—I serve on the Care Fund board, sit on NAPA’s Governmental Affairs Committee, and am a Scottsdale Leadership alum. I graduated cum laude from UMass Amherst, and my greatest joy is spending time with my two amazing sons.
