My Story and Services
Kara's experience in managing the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of a corporation, along with her knowledge of the capital markets and investments, give her the insight and experience to work with individuals, corporations and non-profits in managing their investable assets. Kara addresses a broad range of concerns, with financial responsibility and preservation of capital of paramount importance. As a result of her client care and diligence, Kara received the Five Star Wealth Manager Overall Satisfaction Award as published in Orange Coast Magazine for the past 8 consecutive years (2016-2023).
Kara carries the CFP® designation. This designation comes with extensive training in financial planning, estate planning, insurance, investments, taxes, employee benefits and retirement planning, as well as in CFP® Board’s Standards of Professional Conduct, which are rigorously enforced.

The FWA designation is granted to those Financial Advisors who have successfully completed an accreditation program focused on the skills needed to help families communicate about money and values, share their goals and grow and protect wealth across generations. Kara is fully licensed to work with her clients, holding Series 7 and Series 66, Life, Health, Variable Annuities Insurance and Long Term Care Licenses (#0F36561).
Kara gives back to her Orange County community through actively participating in non-profit work in support of women and children. Kara focuses most of her efforts on ending human trafficking.
