If you have the opportunity you should not hesitate to work with Spark Financial. Not only is their team knowledgeable and experienced, their investment approach is personally tailored to both your financial and personal goals. I cannot speak more highly of my experience with them so far and will continue to work with them in years to come.

We've worked with Lauren and the team for a couple of years now. She's helped addressed every concern we've had about our financial future: retirement, kid's tuition, giving, and home projects. Plus she's educated us on things we didn't even consider. I look forward to working with Spark Financial Advisors for the foreseeable future. I can't recommend this business enough. Lauren and her team set the bar so high for professionalism, care, and attention to detail.

Spark helped us shape our strategy, make a plan and is now helping us do what we need to do to make the plan a reality. My favorite is when Lauren and team send me an email with a list of ToDos to keep everything in order - its directive, instructive and incredibly helpful. Their professionalism and care for our well being as a family reaches beyond just conversations about money and helps us think about what we really care about.

Spark Financial Advisors has changed the way I think about my finances and plan for the future. Can't recommend Lauren Zangardi Haynes highly enough - she is informative, empowering, helps you build a financial plan, and then more importantly holds you accountable to the actions necessary for your success. The software platforms are straightforward and user-friendly, and Lauren puts finance in easy, digestible terms. I gained value not only related to financial planning, but career development and negotiation as well. Thanks to services from Spark Financial Advisors, I now feel optimistic about my future finances, rather than defeated and overwhelmed.
