Ryan Kaysen (CFP®)

Additional Information

I’m more than just a financial planner—I’m a guide for small business owners preparing for the next chapter of their lives. While I hold an MBA in Financial Planning and a CFP® designation, my most valuable lessons have come from real-world experience. I’ve navigated diverse financial challenges and opportunities that shaped my approach to helping others succeed. From paying off student loans through disciplined budgeting to managing and eventually selling a property for profit, I’ve applied what I learned in my own life to guide others. Working in corporate finance gave me insights into managing large institutions, but my time at my father’s small business truly shaped my understanding of the challenges business owners face. There, I handled everything from managing finances and employee benefits to overseeing a defined contribution plan. Currently, I’m helping my father design an exit plan for his business, ensuring his legacy supports a comfortable retirement. This firsthand experience informs how I assist my clients as they navigate similar transitions. Starting my own firm was a natural next step. I wanted to create a space where small business owners could find not just financial expertise but also a trusted partner to help them build and preserve their legacy. I act as a financial quarterback, coordinating a team of professionals to provide comprehensive, personalized guidance so my clients can focus on what matters most—whether that’s running their business today or planning for their future. My passion is simple: helping others achieve financial confidence as they transition from business ownership to a fulfilling retirement while building a legacy that matters to those they love most.
