To me, financial planning is personal.
It’s about more than numbers or investments — it’s about people’s lives, dreams, and well-being. I became a financial planner because I saw firsthand how powerful it is to have someone you value guiding you through life’s big decisions. Now, with over a decade of experience, it’s a privilege to be that person for others.
I’m here to listen, educate, and help you feel confident about your next steps. I believe in making planning approachable, honest, and tailored to your story. No judgment, no pressure — just thoughtful guidance that puts you first.
I hold a CFP® designation and am fully licensed to provide investment and insurance solutions, but what truly sets my work apart is my ability to make you see the full picture and plan accordingly.
Originally from Damascus, I now live in New Jersey with my husband and our two little ones, Leila and Jude. Being a mom has deepened my passion for helping families feel confident and supported. When I’m not working, I’m practicing yoga, traveling with my family, or diving into books on personal growth and financial innovation. I love creating space — for my clients and myself — to think clearly, dream big, and move forward with purpose.
If you’re looking for someone who will care about your life as much as your finances, I’d be honored to be part of your journey.
Phoenix Financial Group was founded in 2022, inspired by a transformative seminar we attended in Phoenix, Arizona. The symbolism of the phoenix bird - renowned for its strength, resilience, and ability to rise again - resonated deeply with us. This powerful metaphor perfectly encapsulates our dedication to helping clients navigate challenges and build a robust financial future.

FAQs |
How are you compensated? How will I pay for your services?Your first consultation is always free. It's a chance to see if we're a good fit and if any of my services make sense. From there, I'm compensated in three ways: |
If you are going to manage my account, will you obtain my permission every time you buy or sell something?It depends on the type of account you open. For managed (discretionary) accounts, I have the ability to make buy and sell decisions on your behalf, always in line with your agreed-upon strategy, so you don't need to approve every trade. For brokerage (non-discretionary) accounts, I do need your permission before executing each transaction. |
Will you be the only person working with me?Your main relationship will always be with me. I'll personally guide your financial planning and be your primary contact. In my absence, I have two partners who are fully prepared to handle your planning needs, along with a dedicated support team that provides customer service across all of the solutions we offer. |
How much risk should I be willing to take?The right amount of risk is different for everyone. It depends on your goals, time horizon, and comfort level. My role is to help you find the balance between growth and protection that feels right for you. |
Have you ever been charged with any breaches?No |
