Meet Your Coach

Technology organizes your finances.
A real coach helps you act on them.

I'm the founder and financial coach at Reed Financial Lab. My background in finance and retirement planning gave me a front-row seat to how overwhelming money decisions can be — even for people doing everything "right." I hold a BBA in Finance and the Qualified 401(k) Administrator (QKA®) credential, and I've helped hundreds of people understand their benefits, employer-match structures, and long-term savings options.

I founded Reed Financial Lab to make personal finances feel less intimidating and a lot more human. My approach is simple: I help you understand where you stand, weigh your options, and move forward with a plan that fits your life — not just handing you a spreadsheet, but helping you feel confident every step of the way.

  • Personalized guidance tailored to your goals
  • Real accountability that keeps you on track
  • A clear action plan — not just another app
