As the published author of An Employee’s Guide to Stock Options (McGraw-Hill, 2003), Beth focuses on comprehensive planning for executives and their families. Her experience as a corporate executive and her time spent consulting for companies like AT&T, Coca-Cola, and Chevron led Beth to understand that successful professionals often don’t take the time necessary for planning, implementing, and managing their own financial circumstances, particularly in the complex areas of executive compensation like employee stock options, deferred compensation, and company-sponsored life insurance.

Beth created the Virtual CFO™ process, effectively integrating the fundamentals of comprehensive financial planning with the unique risks and rewards associated with executive compensation. She has completed comprehensive plans for clients at many Fortune 500 companies, including most publicly-held corporations based in Las Vegas. Beth also conducts dozens of financial education programs for companies interested in providing on-going instruction for their most valuable resource — their employees.

As a current faculty member for the National Institute for Estate Planners, Beth is educated in the most up-to-date tax and wealth-transfer planning strategies. She and her firm believe proper planning demands a team of professionals and are committed to providing these critical resources to their clients. Working with a network of estate planning attorneys and CPAs allows Beth to offer well-researched, integrated solutions for her clients.
