About PJ Gibbs, CFP®
Hi, I'm PJ Gibbs. I was first exposed to financial planning during college. At that time, I thought the only jobs were in traditional commission based roles. So, I went on the get my MBA and ultimately spent time working as a financial analyst for a Fortune 100 company. While there, I found myself spending more time reading and researching personal finance topics and discovered the idea of fee-only financial planning.After obtaining the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ designation, I spent the next six and a half years working for a regional Registered Investment Advisor before founding Trella Wealth.
When not helping clients simplify their financial decision making, I’m a dad to four kids. We’ve just hit the phase of life where most nights are spent shuttling the kids to baseball, soccer, and dance.
I’m lucky enough to have the most supportive & understanding wife who supports my mild (she may disagree how mild) golf addiction. I’m not good, but I’m determined to get better.

About Trella Wealth
Trella Wealth is a fee-only firm built to help working families take control of their money to build wealth their way. (The name Trella comes from my two kids Tripp (Philip III) and Ella.I wanted to build a firm that allows me to help clients build their best life while also supporting mine.)
We offer services like retirement planning, tax-efficient strategies, and investment management, always prioritizing clients' unique goals. Trella Wealth operates on a fee-only basis, meaning we don't earn commissions from selling products, ensuring that the advice we provide is always in the best interest of our clients.
Our approach involves creating tailored financial plans that adapt to life's changes, with regular reviews to ensure clients stay on track toward their financial goals. We work closely with clients to help them prepare for retirement, manage their investments, and develop strategies for preserving and growing their wealth.

We Want Your Voice to be Heard
Wealthtender exists to help people discover trusted and authentic financial professionals and educators who may be a good fit based on their unique needs and circumstances.
Your honest reviews help people decide which financial professionals and educators may be best suited to their individual needs.
The majority of people trust reviews as much as personal recommendations, so what you write in your review should reflect your own opinion and experience.
Tips for Writing a Helpful Review
Be descriptive. Instead of just saying what you like or dislike, share why. What have you enjoyed most or least about your experience with the provider? Have they helped you overcome a difficult financial challenge or strengthened your knowledge about particular money matters? The more details, the better!
Be honest. Your rating and review should reflect your actual experience.
Stay relevant. Ensure your review is helpful to others by avoiding off-topic discussions or personal opinions not relevant to your direct experience.
Make your review easy to read. Reviews should be readable to others. Use proper grammar, avoid excessive capitalization or punctuation, and be sure to check your spelling.
Be yourself. Don’t post as, or pretend to be, someone else, and do not say you’re associated with a person or organization with which you are not.
Be nice. Don’t write abusive, hateful, threatening, or harassing content. Avoid personal threats, hate speech, obscenities, or inflammatory language.
Respect the privacy of others. Don’t post information that can be used to identify another individual or compromise their privacy.
