Meet Michelle Crumm, CFP®, CPA | Fee-Only Financial Planner & Fiduciary Advisor
Like a good friend who always has your back, I am here to make financial planning feel simpler, warmer, and more empowering. As a fee-only, flat-fee financial planner and fiduciary financial advisor in the Ann Arbor, Michigan area, I specialize in financial planning for women, families, and professionals, helping clients navigate retirement and retirement income planning, tax planning, investment management, and the many financial decisions that come with life’s transitions.
With over five decades of life experience, including navigating a significant windfall, transitioning from retirement into a thriving second career, and building three successful businesses, I bring both personal perspective and practical financial experience to my work.
As a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional (CFP®) and Certified Public Accountant (CPA), I provide comprehensive, tax-smart financial planning with a fiduciary focus. My affiliation and membership with XYPlanningNetwork, FeeOnlyNetwork, NAPFA, FPA, and NATP, allow me to access the best resources and continuing education available to continue to excel at financial planning.
Why Belle Eve Financial?
Growing up with limited means, I am not just a financial advisor; I am a financial navigator who has walked the path you are on. I am uniquely positioned to provide you with expert guidance, tailored solutions, and a deep understanding of your financial goals.
Today, Belle Eve Financial is more than a financial planning service; it’s a haven of financial empowerment. The strategies employed here go beyond mere numbers; they are about understanding your unique narrative, your hopes, and your concerns. It’s about crafting a financial narrative that’s as unique as you, with a script of well-informed, judicious financial decisions.
