At Ellevest, we know working 1:1 with a financial planner can be a total game changer when it comes to hitting your money goals. Research shows that people with a financial plan have 3x the net worth of those who don’t. So, to help more women take control of their money — and their lives — we built our financial guidance to be inclusive.
We offer more flexible options too, from workshops to worksheets to live events (free for all Ellevest clients). And, we do it all with financial planners who reflect our community.
Our all-women team of financial planners has years of experience helping women go after their goals: budgeting better, paying off debt, retirement planning, saving to buy a home, and much more. Each planner holds the title of CFP® professional, or CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional, aka the highest level of credibility in the industry. Not only do they bring a wealth of knowledge to every conversation, but they also truly want you to succeed.

Sofia has a bachelor’s degree in business administration from the University of Oklahoma and brings several years of financial planning experience to her role at Ellevest.

Victoria Sado, CFP® (she/her)
Victoria is a huge believer in financial education, and that no amount of debt or other money-related hurdles are too difficult to overcome. She’s a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional and has more than 10 years’ experience in accounting and financial services, including the time she spent in tax planning for small business owners and financial planning for people who received large financial settlements.

Veronica Taylor, CFP® (she/her)
Veronica is one of our CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professionals with her own personal journey of paying down debt and breaking the generational cycle of living paycheck-to-paycheck. Ever since then, her mission has been to help close the racial wealth divide by sharing her knowledge and guiding others in the Black community particularly — not by just paying down debt, but helping to build their financial legacies. She switched careers to reposition her life’s work and career path in support of making that vision a reality. She believes it’s one thing to help clients with their personal finances, but it’s a very different thing to help them build wealth for themselves and their families and is doing her part in making that change.
Corrinne McKenna, CFP®, AFC® (she/her)
As a former professional pilot and current financial planner and counselor, Corrinne embraces the idea that life follows no script, and an unforeseen path usually takes us to places that enrich our lives in ways we never expected. She has lived internationally and across the United States, exploring the country on a sailboat and in a Sprinter van. What Corrinne brings to her financial planning clients is an enthusiasm for the road less traveled, as well as the knowledge and experience to traverse it in a way that doesn’t threaten security or well-being. She holds the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ and Accredited Financial Counselor® designations, and is passionate about working with women who hunger to be daring and different. If you have a bold goal, she wants to be your partner to help you get there.
