My Story and Services

My interest in finance began during my high school years at Kaiser High School when I met my accounting teacher, Mrs. Kubota, who taught me about investing. I got my first job at the Hawaii Kai library at 15 years old as a book shelver and started investing at an early age. It changed my life. I wanted everyone else to experience the benefits of making good financial choices, so I turned my passion for finance into a career.

As Morgan Stanley Financial Advisor, my first priority is to understand you and your goals. Whether it is to plan for a comfortable retirement, helping to ensure that you do not outlive your money, pass on a business or fund your children's education, I am dedicated to understanding your unique "whys" and coming up with strategies to help you accomplish your goals.

I have over 19 years of experience in the financial services industry in various roles, the most recent being a financial advisor at Edward Jones. Before that, I was a wealth advisor in the Bank of Hawaii trust department. During my time at Bank of Hawaii, I obtained my CFP® certification. Prior to that, I worked as a financial analyst at Ayco, a Goldman Sachs Company in Irvine, CA, where I was on a team that helped executives, CEOs and high net worth clients manage their wealth. I am also fluent in Korean.

I would like to learn about what's important to you and work with you to help you to make informed, sound decisions. Please contact me to discuss your situation and how I can help.

 

PURSUING YOUR GOALS, TOGETHER

My clients are much more than a portfolio of assets – they are families with active lives, who seek an experienced advisor who will provide them with thorough, unbiased, and carefully considered guidance on a full range of financial topics. When you work with me, you will be treated with respect, care, confidentiality, and given an unwavering commitment to you and your family.

While my clients each have unique personal and professional circumstances, they all have one thing in common, achieving a financial goal to secure their family's financial future and pursue their personal ambitions.

My goal is to help you enjoy some well-deserved downtime and pursue your passions, rather than worrying about managing finances.

Rational Investing in an Age of Uncertainty

Geopolitical events. Market Volatility. Fear of a recession. Panics.

Any one of these is enough to keep the average investor on edge with an itchy buy/sell trigger finger. But a growing number of psychological and financial theories called “behavioral finance” is showing that during uncertain times, it’s more important than ever to rely on available data and put aside emotion-fueled investing.
