Meet Your Host
After graduating from the University of Arizona, I joined Teach for America, a nonprofit organization that places college graduates in low-socioeconomic schools across the country. I spent two years teaching first grade in North Las Vegas while earning my master’s degree in education from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. I’m on a mission to provide a better investing experience for today’s investors. In March 2021, I joined Sensible Portfolios, a low-fee Registered Investment Advisor (RIA) founded by my father. It’s a family business and we treat our clients like family too.

At Sensible, we follow a few basic rules: Be nice to people, keep investing simple, and don’t charge high advisory fees. I’m passionate about showing investors the negative impact high fees have on reaching their retirement goals.
