Bio
Lars Gilberts
Had the privilege of working with Rudy in the United Way Center for Financial Stability and he jumped in with great enthusiasm and dedication to the team and those he served. Grateful for his willingness to learn, receive feedback, and come up with new ideas to help move the work forward.
Aimee Florez
Rudy is a hard-working, dedicated Coach fully invested in seeing individuals succeed in their financial goals. He is kind and courteous with clients, incredibly knowledgeable about budgeting, credit, and other topics and challenges related to personal finances. His follow through and follow-up with clients is impressive. He doesn't do the work for clients, however, he's a very real support to them in their journey to bring financial stability into their lives. I recommend Rudy for work requiring financial coaching in 1:1 or group settings in formal or informal environments.
