Kristy A. Motta CFP®
President & Co-owner

Kristy’s early childhood memories include riding around corporate office parks with her dad, looking for companies that ended in “Inc.” When she spotted one, he added it to his prospect list. Later, they would go to the library and look up all the “Inc.’s” they had found in the Who’s Who directory.

So, it is fair to say Kristy grew up in the industry. She earned her B.A. in business and marketing at Loyola Marymount University and then earned the professional CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ certification (CFP®) from the College of Financial Planning in Denver, CO. Her focus is on the client’s big picture, spotting potential holes in the planning, and offering useful strategies through investment portfolio design.

She lives in Beaverton, OR, with her husband, Mark, and their dogs, Diva and Rusty. In her free time, she likes to go shopping at Nordstrom with her daughter, Katy, read fun novels, spend time on the water, and workout on her Peloton.
