Whether navigating major life transitions or planning for a confident retirement, Courtney helps clients uncover what matters most and align their financial lives accordingly.
Originally from Lake Charles, Louisiana, Courtney has called Atlanta, Georgia home for the past three years. Outside the office, she lives life with the same intentionality she brings to her work. She enjoys hiking, kayaking, camping, biking, reading, dog training, and volunteering with Habitat for Humanity. She reminds clients that financial readiness is only part of the equation- a fulfilling retirement also means having passions and hobbies that bring joy. For Courtney, the most rewarding part of her job is guiding clients toward clarity, confidence, and a well-lived life.
