Dawn G. Starks is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ practitioner and financial advisor who likes to keep things simple.
When she established her financial planning firm in 1999, her goal was to simplify the entire financial planning process for her clients. After twenty-plus years, Dawn's mission is still to make financial concepts easier to grasp and less intimidating. Her company now manages over $200 million, working with individuals and couples in all stages of life. By making concepts more accessible, she has successfully empowered her clients to find financial literacy and security.
In addition to her commitment to simplifying financial planning for her clients, Dawn has discovered the personal benefits of minimalism and simple living. In 2018, she expanded her horizons with the launch of her online business, SimpleMoney, where she writes and teaches about personal finance and shares the benefits that simple living and minimalism can bring.
When she's not writing or working, Dawn is an avid reader. She particularly loves to read about time management, and of course, simple living. Dawn lives in the mountains of Asheville, North Carolina, with her husband and daughter, and a dog, a cat, and five chickens.
