The H.I.M.E.™ Strategy
Behavior-based financial planning that starts with who you are not just what you have.
Understand Your Pattern
Understand Your Pattern
Most financial plans focus only on your numbers.
We focus on your behavior.
Because how you save, spend, earn, and invest is shaped by more than just math — it’s shaped by your habits, your income flow, your mindset, and your emotions.
That’s why we created the H.I.M.E.™ Strategy — a proprietary framework designed to help you understand and transform your financial behavior.

Where H.I.M.E.™ Came From
After years of working with clients, I saw a pattern: most people didn’t struggle because they lacked information — they struggled because no one ever helped them understand their financial behavior.
That’s why I created H.I.M.E.™ — to give you a personalized strategy that starts with your story, not just your spreadsheet.
