About Brandon Amaral, CFP®, EA

I’ve always been passionate about personal finances and financial planning. After graduating from San Diego Staten University with a degree in Financial Planning, I spent some time working for a large Broker-Dealer and then transitioned to a boutique fee-only firm. I became a CFP® and an Enrolled Agent, and began to focus on the nuances of taxes and stock options.

As a first-generation college student, I quickly realized the importance of understanding your finances and saving as early as possible. I’ve spent the last 8 years working in the Financial Services industry and the past 5 years working directly with financial planning clients.

My goal is to provide affordable financial advice to all individuals and families. I want to help people go from confused and overwhelmed to confident and informed.
