I’m thrilled to announce the launch of Allvet Financial - a virtual, fee-only financial planning firm serving veterinarians and their partners nationwide.

In this episode, I share the story behind starting my own firm, my path from ER vet to financial planner, and why I believe vet-specific financial planning matters.

You’ll hear about:

• Why I launched a firm built just for veterinarians

• My transition from ER vet to financial planner

• How I help clients navigate student loans, income shifts, and big decisions

• The challenges vets face that most planners don’t understand

• What it’s like to work with me at Allvet Financial
