About Innovate Financial
Innovate Financial, Inc. was established in 2007 and specializes in financial planning for federal employees and their families. We partner with our clients to help them reach their goals, and retire confidently. Our client base consists of:
- Federal Employees seeking to maximize their federal employee benefits, Thrift Savings Plan, and ongoing financial planning.
- People seeking investment advice, financial planning advice, and prefer to work with a fiduciary. We provide advice, in our client's best interest, to help them meet their short, mid and long term goals and dreams.
Innovate Financial, Inc. has a niche financial planning market because we partner with federal employees, and their families, to help them achieve their goals. Mike Nakashima, Certified Financial Planner™, has been in the financial services industry since 2000. Mike learned early in his career that by having a niche market for financial planning advice he would be able to bring a higher level of expertise to his clients than a financial planning generalist would. Your Federal Employee Benefits are valuable, both now and in retirement. It's important that your financial planning team knows how to help you make the most of them.
Today, Innovate Financial, Inc. is serving over 200 households and has a strong team with Mike, Justin Horsch (Financial Planner), and Melissa Richter (Accounts and Office Manager). We are proud to be a boutique office where we all know our clients, their families, and their goals.
We have a diverse group of clients at different stages in life. We meet a lot of our new clients as they are preparing for retirement. We welcome federal employees at all stages of their career to contact us to see if we can partner well together.
Innovate Financial, Inc. also partners with clients that are not in the federal employee system. Our experience is that by having a commonality amongst most of our clients we are able to provide a higher level of service to all of our clients.
