About Me

Hi, I'm Jamie Clark. Here's what you should know about me.

No matter your goals, I believe financial planning shouldn’t be a burden or stressful. It should be approachable, inspiring, and tailor-made to you. By partnering with me, it is possible to achieve your financial dreams.

When I’m not crafting financial plans, you will find me out for a walk, eating pasta, reading, or with my spouse, Michael, playing with our puppy, Frankie, at home in Seattle, Washington.

✅ WHAT I BRING TO THE TABLE

• CFP® Professional
• Working in the financial industry since 2020
• A decade working as a software engineer
• Member of the FIRE community since 2011
• LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC friendly
• Specializing in non-traditional lifestyle goals

✅ A FEW FUN FACTS

• For the last four years (2018 onwards), I have read at least 52 books.
• I don’t drink coffee. Hot chocolate is my winter warm drink of choice.
• I don’t like dark chocolate. Milk chocolate and hazelnut though? *So* good.
• When I was a kid, I would wake up at 6am so I could use the internet back when we had dial up. (Did we all do this? Or is it just me?)

About our Firm

Ruby Pebble Financial Planning® specializes in providing non-traditional clients a safe and collaborative space to express their wants, needs, and desires without stigma or the need to explain themselves.

We are proud to be a fee-only financial planning firm focusing on non-traditional financial paths in a progressive way with an emphasis on sincere approachability and the support of the latest in technology. We serve clients virtually in the United States from Seattle, WA.

CORE VALUES

Creating a collaborative space and erasing any stigma is at the core of Ruby Pebble. Here, there is no need to explain your wants or your goals. Success is built on non-negotiable mutual respect. Jamie takes a flexible approach to your plan with objective advice, analytical education, and a sincere concern for your overall well-being and financial future. Ruby Pebble is rooted firmly in intentional, client-led strategies that give you clarity, peace of mind, and a focused path.

✅ FLEXIBILITY: We work with you to show you how your finances can build flexibility in your life. We are a small firm, which enables Jamie to build our services to fit you, our client. Your financial plan is a living document that shifts with you through our ongoing financial planning services.

✅ COLLABORATION: You are the expert on your life and I am here to help you think through the finances of your dreams and answer your questions. We use financial planning software that allows the process to be collaborative to build out the best plan for you, as much as you want to be directly involved.

✅ INCLUSION: We are passionate about increasing the wealth of those traditionally underserved by the financial services industry. We can work with you when you might not have built your wealth yet or have the income to support an ongoing relationship.

MY MISSION

I am here to support and craft a transparent financial trajectory for your unique situation. I will collaborate with individuals and couples in their 20s to late 40s to prepare a sound financial plan that works to accommodate any non-traditional routes in life, including early retirement, keeping separate finances, and unique lifestyle changes.

SERVICES

All clients start with an initial financial plan project. After the initial financial plan, you can choose to receive continued support at my hourly rate. The level of support can be adjusted to fit your needs with an ongoing financial planning relationship (with or without investment management) or hourly projects. I can provide you with a customized quote after the initial plan process.
