Ms. Williams is Client Care Manager.

The firm’s advisory activities also include providing continuous supervision and consultation with respect to the investment of client assets, as well as periodic consultation and advice with respect to securities that do not involve ongoing supervision of an account. As of December 31, 2022, our firm had $118,786,293 of client assets under its management2 on a discretionary basis (defined in Item 16). Wrap Fee Program Gather Financial Planning offers continuous asset management exclusively through its self-sponsored wrap fee investment program. This program provides account monitoring, rebalancing of funds, performance reporting and other advisory services, as well as trade execution and Internet access to your account for a “wrapped” fee. The firm may engage the services of a sub-advisor and/or periodically utilize internal personnel to serve as portfolio manager. If you would like more information regarding program details, associated fees and costs, account requirements (including recommended minimum account sizes), we are required to provide you with a copy of our separate wrap fee investment program brochure upon request.
