LEADERSHIP
Following the establishment and successful sale of her ownership in a prominent financial advisory practice in Northeast Florida, Deana found herself presented with the opportunity to retire at the young age of 43. However, fueled by her unwavering dedication to advocate for women, she chose to channel her passion and talent by creating Contemporary Financial Planning and BagLady Divorce.
Contemporary Financial Planning is a registered investment advisory firm providing financial planning and investment management. BagLady Divorce is a platform devoted to educating women about divorce and money.
COMMUNICATION
As part of the divorce team Deana collaborates closely with family law attorneys to provide advanced financial planning support to women of ultra-high net worth.
