Doug Menorca, CFP®

I believe in personal responsibility.

I worked for and retired from Capitol Hill.  I have seen how the Federal Government works and doesn’t work.  Working for Members in charge of financial services, retirement and health care has exposed me to the possibilities and limitations of government.  Based on my experience, the government is not going to be able to provide everything politicians are promising.  I understand that promises of free things can help a person get elected, but we are running a deficit and have a huge debt.  My belief is that in my lifetime the bill is going to come due.  

In addition to my time on Capitol Hill, I have had the opportunity to work in business as well as run a few campaigns.  I realize that the issues facing a business owner are very different from those of government employees.  As such, I bring my vast knowledge in Federal employee benefits together with the experience and expertise of our team at Ascend Planning and Consulting, LLC.

Whether you have a family with young children, are a business owner and especially if you are a federal employee, I look forward to the opportunity to assist you to develop a clear objective of your personal and financial goals then look forward to assisting you in your pursuit of achieving those goals  .  My personal experience, knowledge of the issues and understanding of the concerns you may face, should enable me to become a valuable resource to you, your family and/or your business.

You have worked hard for your money; I want to work hard to help you keep it.
