About me

Since 2009, I have dedicated my professional life to helping women get through the divorce process financially.  I began the Second Saturday – What Women Need to Know About Divorce workshop in Southport where hundreds of women have learned how to deal with their legal, financial, and psychological challenges of divorce.  While my focus is financial (planning, investment needs, evaluating divorce settlement options), I often partner with other local professionals who provide legal and psychological resources, so that all aspects of your divorce process are being addressed.  

As a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst™ (CDFA), I have specialized training, professional resources, plus technology and tools to use on your behalf to accurately evaluate the financial aspects of your divorce and help you select the best course of action for your financial future. As the founder of Divorce Financial CARE™, I am proud to be known as a compassionate, knowledgeable, financial expert who makes the numbers understandable, and supports women going through one of life’s most difficult experiences. 

I have lived in Fairfield and been a part of the community for 30 years.  I’ve always been connected to the local area in many ways – owning a family apparel business (Fairway & Greene), working in the financial services industry, parenting our two sons through the public school system, supporting local sports, church, professional and social networks, and volunteering. My husband of 33 years, and I raised our sons in Fairfield.  Today, we are business owners and empty nesters who enjoy live theatre & music, the beach and cooking. I recently became a grandmother. I want to be called "Nisi" which salutes my American Indian Cherokee heritage.
