Garrett Sanders | Financial Advisor

 

Garrett brings an entrepreneurial perspective to our practice, rooted in nearly a decade of hands-on experience as a small business owner. Starting his career in finance in 2013, Garrett later pursued his entrepreneurial dream in 2016, co-owning and operating a successful café in Placerville, California.

 

A Focus on the Owner-Operator and Family

 

His time as a restaurateur provided invaluable insights into the daily challenges, obligations, and financial needs of small business owners. Now returned to the financial services industry, Garrett leverages this real-world knowledge to help clients—especially small business owners—navigate complex planning and benefit strategies.

Garrett's practice concentrates on:

  • Small Business Solutions: Planning, employee benefits, and succession strategies for business owners.

  • Family & Individual Planning: Comprehensive financial planning tailored for growing families.

  • Retirement Planning: Strategies designed to help build and sustain long-term wealth.

  • Protection: Essential insurance solutions, including life, disability, and long-term care coverage.

Garrett believes the most effective plans start with active listening. He is committed to understanding your specific needs and developing comprehensive, objectives-based strategies.

 

Life Outside the Office

 

Garrett and his spouse of over ten years maintain a small homestead where they are raising their three children. Their hands-on lifestyle—tending to horses, chickens, and dogs, and enjoying outdoor activities—mirrors his dedicated, grounded approach to serving clients and building durable financial plans.
