Why Women?
Women are more likely to be financially vulnerable than men, struggling in nearly all areas of their financial lives. This can make saving for retirement especially difficult. In fact, 35% of nonretired women aged 50-64 report having no personal retirement savings whatsoever.1
Why Does This Matter?
Women’s financial needs are often very different from men. Their preferred style of learning is often different as well. This is why we created a women’s division at Global Wealth Management, to specifically address the unique aspects of women’s financial goals and concerns.

Outside of her professional commitments, Amber finds fulfillment in actively participating in her community. She enjoys being involved in local events, volunteering, and supporting initiatives that contribute positively to the well-being of her community. As a proud mother of three daughters and a loving wife, Amber values the importance of family and spends quality time gardening, exploring nature, and enjoying the company of her family and their cherished dog.
Recognized for her dedication to serving women, Amber received the Financial Advisor Women's Choice Award in 2021, and in 2022 and 2024 she won the Prestigious Women Awards with South Florida’s Business and Wealth.
