CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™

Hi, I am John, a Bellingham, WA fee-only financial planner. I am also the founder and owner of Trail Financial Planning LLC. I enjoy working with people who care for others and their community – firefighters, therapists, doctors, nurses and teachers. As you help others, you also must help yourself. That’s where I come in. I help you put all the financial pieces together into a cohesive strategy that matches you, your family, and your values. I help you organize, strategize, simplify. I have your back.

I am also a husband, father, teacher, and play hound. I love getting out on the trails and slopes of the Pacific Northwest – for a ski, bike, run, or hike. I am also conscious of the impacts of modern life on the world. I strive to bring the saying, “Think Globally, Act Locally,” into my own life and my work with my clients.

In 2017 our family took a sabbatical for four months to explore Asia. We spent time in Indonesia, Malaysia, Cambodia, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam and Nepal. We blogged about our travels (including one post on how a teacher and a therapist pulled it off). You can read more by clicking on the image above, or by visiting:
