Maddalena Parks uses her chemistry background to act as a catalyst for financial transformation. She enjoys demystifying money by making it fun and approachable. Maddelena sees money as a tool for achieving goals and helps clients understand the three phases of financial planning: acquiring, keeping, and eventually spending money in enjoyable ways.

Maddalena believes in character, integrity, and ethics, and she most enjoys working with those who are honest with themselves. She believes authenticity is the key to achieving satisfaction, especially when it comes to financial planning. She approaches financial planning as a collaboration, working with and alongside her clients to help them secure the life they’ve imagined for themselves. She is attentive to the details that make every financial journey unique and personal and cares deeply about what her clients want most. Authentic client input is crucial to achieving the desired outcome, and the more open and honest people are about their goals and preferences, the easier it is to create a financial plan to help them achieve those goals.
