Where we're Going

Our story began in 1983 when we were founded under Lincoln Financial Advisors. In 2025, we embraced a new identity as GPS Financial Planning when Lincoln became part of Osaic Wealth, Inc. Our name, GPS, embodies our commitment to Goals, Plans, and Solutions. This philosophy is at the heart of our approach, guiding clients like a GPS through the intricate landscape of financial decisions.

We start by understanding your unique aspirations, crafting a clear and actionable plan, and offering tailored solutions to navigate your financial journey. For over 40 years, our dedication has been to support clients in their pursuit of financial clarity and confidence. We aim to be a reliable guide, helping you stay on track through life's financial crossroads.

With a focus on professionals and owners of closely held businesses, our approach is personal and empathetic. We build lasting relationships, becoming a trusted resource for all your significant financial decisions. Our Colorado backdrop serves as a reminder of our steadfast commitment to your financial well-being, as we walk alongside you, offering guidance and support every step of the way.
