Because earning more shouldn’t come with financial uncertainty.
Making long-term decisions like how much to save for retirement, how to allocate investments, and when you can afford to slow down or stop working
Balancing your own goals with the needs of others, from saving for retirement, to supporting family members (such as your parents or adult children), to preparing to send your children to college.
Worrying you might be missing something important, whether that’s a tax strategy, account type, investment option, or planning opportunity you didn’t know to ask about
When the decisions are this important, the advice you receive has to be objective, transparent, and focused solely on your best interests. You have worked hard to earn well. Now it’s time to make your money work for you.
The goal: empower your financial decisions
I provide the expertise, structure, and perspective to help you see the full picture, understand your options, and move forward with confidence.
My A.M.P.L.I.F.Y. framework provides a clear path, so I we can help you move forward with confidence and intention, ensuring every detail is given proper attention.
Together, we will:
There are two primary ways to work together, tailored to where you are on your wealth-building journey and the level of support you need. Both approaches are designed to help you make informed financial decisions and move forward with confidence.
A complete financial plan you can act on with confidence.
Signature Wealth Planning is my core offering. It’s designed for people ready to take action to build their wealth.
Together, I help you clearly see your strategic choices, make smart decisions, and move forward without second-guessing yourself.
Focused guidance for one clear financial decision.
The Wealth Focus Session is designed for people who have just started earning well in their careers. You’re on your way, but not quite ready for a full financial plan. This focused, one-hour session of support will help with a specific area you want to focus on.
My Signature Wealth Planning is for women ready to take control of their money and make informed, confident decisions. Whether you climbed ladders and broke some glass ceilings, or spent the past decade raising children and running your household (or both!) — you understand the value of discipline. Now, you want your household income to work as hard as you do, while also setting you and your loved ones up for long-term financial security.
Phew. That’s a lot, but we 110% get it as women who’ve done it all too. I also know that financial planning strategies for high-earners and people with a high net worth require a different set of skills. More income doesn’t mean everything is ‘easier’ or that it feels like you have a lot of money. In fact, decisions can feel even more complex the higher you climb. That’s why having a personalized financial plan makes all the difference.
That said, this is not for those who are looking for someone to manage their money for them, push products, or make decisions on their behalf.
I bring the expertise and lived experience, empower you with knowledge, and deliver a personalized plan—so you can take decisive action and achieve your financial goals.
For financial decision makers ready to see the full picture, understand and unlock new possibilities, and take control of your wealth, this is for you.

Hi! I’m Alissa, the founder and financial planner here at Amplify My Wealth. I’ve been drawn to personal finance since I was a teenager, long before it became my profession. (I know! Picture a teen relaxing in her bed, wondering where she was going out with her friends in NYC while getting lost in the Kiplinger Personal Financial Magazine she grabbed from the corner candy store.)
Even with this interest, I took a different career path. At the age of 26, I became a senior court attorney for the Kings County Supreme Court. During my first benefits enrollment, I committed to maxing out my retirement savings, not even sure what that would look like for my monthly paycheck or if I could afford it. I just knew that compounding was something I wasn’t going to miss out on. That decision, and the discipline that followed, became the foundation for the work-optional life I live today.
After a successful legal career and managing my family’s finances while raising my children, I was also the go-to for friends and family wanting financial guidance—leading to my second career as a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® Professional.
Now, I provide expert guidance focused on clear decision-making, without mansplaining or icky sales pressure you so often find in the personal finance space. And yes, I absolutely love strategizing and living in spreadsheets and numbers.
As a fee-only fiduciary financial planner, I do not sell products, earn commissions, or have custody of your assets. I am always acting in your best interest.
In addition to working with individual clients, I partner with organizations in two distinct capacities: retirement plan consulting and speaking engagements. In both roles, I bring the same fee-only, fiduciary perspective that defines my client work—always clear, unbiased, and focused on tangible outcomes.
