I grew up at the kitchen table learning how money works, how to pay bills, save wisely, and plan for the future. Finance has always been my language, so choosing a career in it felt natural. I earned my master’s in accounting and spent more than 20 years in the financial services industry before specializing in divorce.
Today, I’m a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst®, Certified Divorce Coach®, Top-rated Divorce Mediator in CT, Financial Recovery Coach, and Caring Co‑Parent Coach®. My work is simple at its core: helping you understand your finances during divorce so you can make decisions that protect your future.
But my expertise isn’t just professional; it’s personal too!
When I went through my own divorce, I felt overwhelmed, scared, and unsure where to turn. Even with a financial background, the emotional weight made everything harder. I had to rebuild, piece by piece, and learn how to make decisions that supported the life I wanted next. That experience changed me, and it’s why I do this work.
I know what it feels like to sit in uncertainty.
I know how heavy the financial questions can be.
And I know how powerful it is to have someone steady beside you.
Everyone approaches money differently, and every financial picture is unique. I help you understand the short‑ and long‑term impact of your choices so your future isn’t left to chance.
My mission is to make sure you feel supported, informed, and inspired, not just to get through your divorce, but to build a life you feel confident stepping into.
Share your email, and I’ll quietly keep you in the loop with guidance, clarity, and resources for when the time feels right.
Getting a divorce can be overwhelming, but tackling your documents and finances doesn’t have to be! Here’s an essential checklist to help you organize everything you need. Think of it as your roadmap to a smoother transition—it's always the first step you should take in the divorce process.
