About Jared Tanimoto, CFP®
About Me
Hi, I’m Jared Tanimoto, CFP®, a financial planner and investment advisor based in Irvine, California. I work with clients both locally and virtually across the country, helping them navigate their financial future with clarity and confidence. My goal is simple: to provide thoughtful, personalized financial guidance so you can focus on what matters most.
With over 15 years of experience, I’ve had the privilege of serving as President of the Financial Planning Association of Orange County, being recognized as an InvestmentNews 40 Under 40 honoree, and contributing as a founding member of the Investopedia Advisor Council. I am also honored to be recognized as an Investopedia Top 100 Advisor, highlighting my commitment to financial education and thought leadership.
Background & Education
I graduated from the University of California, Irvine, where I studied Business Economics. My passion for financial planning stems from a deep interest in helping people make informed, strategic decisions that align with their values and goals. Over the years, I’ve worked with individuals and families at various life stages, guiding them through investment management, retirement planning, and wealth-building strategies.
Way of Life
Family, lifelong learning, and helping others are central to who I am. My wife is a macroeconomist, and together, we’re raising our two young children, which has given me a deep appreciation for the importance of long-term financial planning and generational wealth-building. I enjoy working with people who value integrity, thoughtful planning, and long-term success. My approach to financial advice is rooted in clarity, transparency, and trust, ensuring my clients feel confident in their financial decisions.
Hobbies & Interests
Outside of work, I love spending time with my family, exploring the outdoors, and staying active. I’m an avid rock climber and enjoy pushing my limits both mentally and physically. I also have a passion for hiking, camping, mountain biking and discovering new ways to stay active while enjoying nature.
Looking forward to helping you build a financial future with confidence.
