About Matthew Hale, CFP®

Hi, I'm Matthew Hale. Creating a detailed financial plan is the cornerstone of turning your dreams into reality. My passion lies in crafting and continually refining your plan, ensuring you have a clear understanding of the journey ahead. Together, we’ll work to keep you on course, adapting as needed to navigate the changes life brings. ​

With over 15 years of experience I’ve had the privilege of advising hundreds of families and even educating fellow financial advisors on complex financial topics. Over time, I’ve discovered that my expertise and passion are particularly aligned with supporting small business owners and professionals navigating stock compensation. I take pride in making complex financial concepts accessible and ensuring that you feel confident and comfortable in your financial decisions.

​As a Boston native, I’m an avid sports fan. My wife, Briana, and I share a love for golf and travel, always looking for new courses to play and destinations to explore. As a small business owner myself, I understand the challenges of balancing the demands of daily operations with long-term aspirations. This experience drives my commitment to helping others achieve that same balance in their financial lives.

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.
