Meet Elena

Before Verdane, Elena spent ten years on the pension desk of a large Boston firm. Today she works mostly with people in their fifties and sixties who want an honest answer to one question: will the money last?

Her sessions are unhurried and free of jargon, and her plans fit on a single page. Clients often say they leave a call with Elena feeling lighter than when they joined.

Working together

  1. 01

    Lay out every future income source, from Social Security to rental income, on a single timeline.

  2. 02

    Test the plan against a long life, difficult markets and rising prices.

  3. 03

    Agree a calm withdrawal routine and revisit it together twice a year.

Where they help most

  • 401(k) and pension rollovers
  • Social Security timing
  • Tax-smart withdrawals
  • Long-term care planning

What clients say

  • “Elena showed us we could stop working two years sooner than we had planned, and walked us through every step.”
    Diane and Robert K.Retired teachers
  • “She made the timing of Social Security so clear that it simply stopped keeping me up at night.”
    Patrick L.Engineer, 64
  • “Patient, careful and warm. Our whole plan is on one page, and we really do use it.”
