Our Experience
I am a talented and experienced
financial analyst who has translated 20+ years of experience in providing analytical
services to businesses into a growing practice helping individuals and couples understand
and feel in control of their finances.
I have a Bachelor's Degree in
Finance and a Masters of Business Administration, with a concentration in Finance. Prior
to raising a family, I spent 14 years in the banking and mortgage banking businesses. For
the last 7 years, I have been providing budgeting and analytical services to small
businesses, individuals and couples. In my divorce practice I have assisted over 90
clients with their pre-and post-divorce analytical and litigation support needs. My
clients monthly living expenses have ranged from $2,000 per month to over $100,000 per
month. Services include budget preparation, lifestyle analysis, preparation of Disclosure
Statements, litigation support, marital and non-marital asset tracing, and balance sheet
preparation. I have been deposed numerous times on my work and have qualified as an expert
witness in divorce trials.
I have received my Certified
Divorce Financial Analyst (CDFA) designation from the The Institute for
Certified Divorce Financial Analysts (IDFA). I am currently serving my thirteen year
on our local school board, eight of which were spent as the Board Treasurer. I am a former
Board Member of The Lilac Tree,
an Evanston, Illinois based organization that supports women in the divorce process. I am
also a member of the Association of Illinois Divorce Financial Professionals. |
