ABOUT STRIDE

The financial decisions you make during your peak earning years shape the rest of your life. I founded Stride with a simple belief: every mid-to-late career professional deserves high-quality financial planning with total fee transparency.  Navigating your wealth-building years is critical, but the financial industry often makes it harder than it needs to be. Many firms require huge investment account minimums or rely on commission-based product sales, making it hard to know if the advice you're receiving is truly in your best interest. As an independent, fee-only firm, Stride operates under a fiduciary standard. We sell zero products and earn zero commissions. I'm David, and my passion is helping professionals like you optimize your wealth with objective, straightforward guidance—no high-pressure tactics required.

ABOUT
IMG_3310.jpeg

​

I'M DAVID.

I’m a husband and dad to four beautiful children.  I have always had a passion for personal finance.  As I began to navigate life in my 30’s with a growing family, home purchases, student loan debt, planning for retirement, and college savings for my children, I decided to turn my passion into a career to help others.  I returned to school through the UC Berkeley Extension program and earned a graduate certificate in Personal Financial Planning.  As a financial planner, I enjoy helping my clients navigate financial issues in order to bring peace and confidence surrounding their finances.  

 

I believe in conflict free financial advice, the way it should be.  I don’t sell products or earn commissions from your investment portfolio with confusing fees.  I'm an independent fee-only financial planner. My fee is clear and fixed, which eliminates surprises and promotes transparency.  I’m also a fiduciary, which means I’ve taken an oath to act solely in your best interest.
