About Me

Jennifer W. Kang brings almost 20 years of experience in Wealth Management at Merrill Lynch and HSBC. She has practiced in Honolulu, Los Angeles and New York City. Her desire is to deliver financial literacy and raise the bar on financial advice by lowering fees and having no asset minimums.

Jennifer’s passion for the financial services industry was born in 2006 when she was introduced to the Certified Financial Planning program in college. She was drawn to the idea of helping people, ideally in a profession that didn’t involve the sight of blood. This led her to embark on a journey with Merrill Lynch and HSBC and over the span of nearly two decades, she worked her way up to the Financial Planner she is today.

JWK is a flat fee-only platform that offers comprehensive financial planning for first generation wealth building professionals. We look to partnering with our clients so that they can spend time doing what they enjoy and leave the complicated financial matters to us.

To make Wealthtender free for readers, we earn a nominal monthly fee from financial advisors and firms in exchange for marketing services (including being featured on this profile page), subject to terms of use. This compensation creates a natural conflict of interest when we favor their promotion over others. Wealthtender is not a client of these advisors or firms. Testimonials may not be representative of other clients’ experiences and do not guarantee future performance or success.
