About Me

Laura Hyman has been in the financial services business since 1983. She has a B.A. in philosophy from the University of Maryland, as well as an M.A. and Ph.D. in English literature from New York University.

She has built her career working with individuals and small institutions, assisting them in their wealth management issues and helping them achieve their individual financial goals.

Laura believes that businesses that focus on sustainability will in the long run be rewarded with better business outcomes. She is devoted to such causes as animal rights/rescue and the vegan lifestyle. This is part of her family DNA. After the 1918 flu pandemic claimed his brother, Laura’s father chose a career in medicine. Morris Hyman MD became an early proponent of veganism in America.

One random fact: Laura is an accomplished operatic soprano who has sung, among other venues, at the White House.

About our Firm

For over three decades, our team at Seasons of Advice Wealth Management has helped our clients make relevant and effective financial choices to help them comfortably and confidently build wealth. We are experienced and independent professionals who have the knowledge, inspiration and practical expertise that can make an important emotional and financial difference in your family’s financial security and success.

We Plan for All the Seasons of Your Life

Ours is a unique approach to a traditional discipline. Addressing your finances according to the seasonal flow of your life — and your money — aligns with natural processes. The Seasons of Advice process has a natural rhythm, one that aligns with the way you experience life. By giving our work together a context that is constant and reliable, all financial matters receive proper consideration, so you can make more effective choices and keep your wealth-building momentum moving forward.

❄️ Winter: Goal Tracking

The main purpose of the Goal Tracking season is to analyze and discuss how we are progressing with each of your goals. This is where we recalculate where you stand, re-evaluate our assumptions and possibly re-set our strategies moving forward.

🌱 Spring: Asset Allocation

In Asset Allocation we take into consideration your risk tolerance, investment time frames etc. We then set the Investment model we will be using for the next 12 months.

🌞 Summer: Family, Security and Cash Flow Review

This season will focus on cash flow ensuring you are properly positioned for your short term cash needs. Insurance and estate planning strategies are reviewed. Additionally, we discuss intergenerational issues and employee benefits.

🍂 Fall: Tax Planning

This season is designed to make sure your taxes are organized as much as possible. We reach out to your accountant to work with us to help you make appropriate tax decisions, not only to save taxes in the current year but also for the long run.
