Ricky specializes in crafting customized financial plans that cater to a diverse range of clients with unique needs, ensuring each client receives tailored advice and solutions that align with their financial goals.
Ricky's approach to financial planning is based on a collaborative four-step process. First, he conducts a thorough assessment of his clients' financial situation by examining their assets, liabilities, income, and expenses.

Next, he works closely with clients to set realistic, achievable financial goals that address both short-term and long-term needs. By discussing clients' objectives, Ricky can better understand their priorities, risk tolerance, and desired outcomes.
