Founded in 2003, Starboard Financial, LLC combines the intimacy of a boutique investment management service with the experience of the largest independent broker-dealer in the nation*, LPL Financial, ticker LPLA.

Personal relationships based on trust with clients are her ultimate goal.

As a firm, she aims to focus on the client relationship and identify their financial needs and short and long-term goals. The process begins with education and learning about their true tolerance for risk. Her hands-on approach unites strategy development by providing clients with a personalized comfort level.
