About Us
Peninsula Wealth is an independent wealth management firm with dedicated professionals ready to meet your needs. Our team consists of Certified Financial Planners™ and has over 75 years of combined experience. We are located in the SOMA area of San Francisco, right off the CalTrain, and serve clients throughout the greater Bay Area.
Peninsula Wealth was founded on the idea that every client deserved transparent and accessible financial planning – at a time when this belief was uncommon in our industry. This belief still holds true today and runs through everything we do. We understand that our clients have worked hard towards their financial goals. In turn, we get considerable satisfaction in maintaining their trust, guiding them through life’s important decisions, and giving them the peace of mind that they will accomplish the things that are most important to them. No matter how complicated the needs of the client are, the advice should be affordable, relatable, and straightforward for everyone.
