Kalvin helped me evaluate a potentially risky deal, and suggested a strategy to protect what I value most: my relationshipips. He is kind, thoughtful, and really considerate. I will definitely seek his counsel again.

Kalvin knows how to ask the right questions - money should be used as a tool in pursuit of dreams and fulfilment. Kalvin took the time to listen to my situation and suggest a course of action.

I spoke to several financial advisors for specific guidance on interpreting my financial profile and I found Kalvin to be the only one to offer me truly honest and thoughtful feedback. He understood my situation very well and helped me bust a lot of myths regarding the use of credit cards. I highly recommend Kalvin and will not hesitate to work with him in the future.

Kalvin was a great in helping me and my fiance plan for our financial future. He is a good listener and took time to understand what our backgrounds and goals were before giving advice. We left our meeting with him with sound action steps to take. Although we just started planning, I would recommend Kalvin as a trustworthy person to take financial questions to.

Kalvin truly has great knowledge on how to manage finances so you can survive in a very expensive place. He has lots of ideas to share if you have a very low income like my husband and I. He gave us tips on cutting down expenses, what are our other options for housing and how to get better income. Kalvin is also very sympathetic. He feels for you. He listens very well where you are coming from and he understands. I strongly recommend Kalvin if you need a financial planner and advisor. Kalvin is the best person for this!

As a Realtor, I'm asked for referrals to other professionals in various fields. I only recommend using such professionals I would use personally. Kalvin is definitely one that tops my list. He takes the time to listen and fully understand his clients needs and goals. He helps to educate, navigate and creates a plan for his clients to succeed. If you're planning for your financial future, I would meet with Kalvin to discuss what's best for you and your family.

As a newly married couple, my wife and I were looking for a financial advisor to help us navigate the complexities of the money management world - to educate us and help create a plan to reach our goals. We came across Kalvin and found him to be extremely approachable and sincere in our initial consultation meetings. He offered honest and sound advice in response to our many questions, despite the fact that we had not yet committed to using his services. Although its still early, I'm very happy with Kalvin's services thus far and its definitely good to have one less thing to worry about

Kalvin was referred to me by a friend. I sent him an e-mail and he got right back to me. I told him what I was looking for (health insurance) and he listened very carefully. He came back to me in one day with a comprehensive list that was very well laid out with various options. There were about 10 options to choose from, but based on my preferences, he highlighted the two that would suit me best. I called him up and we chatted and came to an agreement about what was best for my needs. There was absolutely no "pushy sale" or anything of the sort.

I do not think that the health plan that
