Our Story
The Financial Palette was founded after seeing a pattern that felt all too familiar. Talented artists and creative professionals were building meaningful careers, yet many struggled to find financial guidance that reflected the realities of how they lived and worked.
Traditional financial planning often assumes a predictable career, a steady paycheck, and a conventional path to retirement. Creative careers rarely follow that script. Income can fluctuate, opportunities arise unexpectedly, and success is often measured by more than a salary alone.
We started The Financial Palette to bridge that gap.
Today, we provide comprehensive financial planning and investment management for artists, creatives, individuals, and families who want thoughtful advice tailored to their goals and circumstances. Whether you're navigating a creative career or simply looking for a financial partner who takes the time to understand your life, our approach is rooted in clear guidance, long-term relationships, and practical strategies that evolve with you.
Jaden, the Financial Planner
As a financial planner, my role is to help clients make informed decisions with confidence. I believe financial planning should be personal, practical, and adaptable to the realities of everyday life, not a one-size-fits-all process.
I studied finance at the University of Southern Maine’s School of Business and continued my education through the College for Financial Planning. I work with individuals, families, artists, and creative professionals to develop comprehensive financial plans, manage investments, and navigate important financial decisions.
Whether you're planning for retirement, building wealth, managing cash flow, or preparing for a major life transition, my goal is to provide thoughtful guidance and build a long-term partnership centered around your goals and values.
Jaden, the Artist
As a painter, my work explores themes of economics, markets, and the American dream through meticulously detailed landscapes and still lifes.
I graduated from the Maine College of Art & Design with a major in Painting and a minor in Art & Entrepreneurship. My work has been recognized through honors including the Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation Grant, the Albert K. Murray Fine Arts Educational Grant, and the Letitia Moore Grant.
Being an artist shapes the way I approach financial planning. I understand the challenges and opportunities that come with building a creative career, allowing me to provide guidance that reflects the realities of artists and creative professionals.
