Jesse Pence, CFP®
Financial Adviser,
Pro-Bono Director for the San Francsico Chapter of the Financial Planning Association
Personal Statement:
Since joining the profession in 2016, I’ve seen first-hand the incredible impact a financial expert can make when it comes to increasing financial confidence and achieving goals. People recommend me to their friends because of the impact this type of support has had on their life and how easy it has been. With just some small changes, I am confident our work together will help you be much better off financially. I grew up in Portland, Oregon and now love living in San Francisco with my boyfriend. I enjoy many outdoor activities including rowing on the beautiful San Francisco Bay, and hosting dinner parties for friends. I recently got an Instant Pot and am excited to improve my cooking skills!

Personal Statement:
I'm looking forward to supporting you on your four week journey to build on the progress you've already made. It's always helpful to remember that taking action is the key part of this program and that's what I'll be working with you on tracking your progress and following up on your To Dos with deadlines.
I hear all the time how impactful this coaching model is and how easy we make it for people. One of my favorite quotes from someone who completed the program is:
"I appreciated being held accountable for taking action and made more movement in reaching my financial goals [in four weeks] than I have in the last 5 years."
