Claudia Porter, CFP®
Wealth Advisor
Claudia Porter, CFP®
Wealth Advisor

Claudia Porter, CFP®, is more than a Financial Advisor—she is a strategist, an advocate, and a trusted guide for those ready to take control of their financial future. With a passion for empowering women and a commitment to holistic financial planning, she helps clients navigate life’s biggest transitions with clarity and confidence.

Born and raised in Germany, her first love was language—how it connects us, empowers us, and shapes our futures. She earned a Ph.D. in Linguistics, dedicating years to teaching and research before a series of personal and professional challenges reshaped her path. After moving to the U.S. as an exchange student, she pursued her dream of becoming a Financial Advisor—a journey that demanded resilience, determination, and an unwavering belief in reinvention.

Her own experiences, including overcoming financial constraints and rebuilding after a difficult divorce, solidified her belief that financial independence is the foundation of personal freedom—particularly for women. She saw firsthand how financial literacy can change lives, and made it her mission to provide the guidance, strategies, and education her clients need to thrive.

Claudia’s approach is deeply personal. She believes financial planning isn’t just about investments or retirement accounts—it’s about understanding each client’s unique story, values, and vision for the future. Whether crafting tailored investment strategies, optimizing tax planning, or guiding business owners through complex transitions, she creates plans designed to align with her clients’ long-term aspirations.

Beyond her work as an Advisor, Claudia is a thought leader and advocate for financial empowerment. She is the author of two books which provide real-world strategies for building financial confidence and overcoming adversity. She also leads women’s professional networks and financial education initiatives, using her platform to help others turn financial uncertainty into strength.

Now, as part of RFG Advisory, Claudia brings her experience, insight, and passion to an even broader audience. With expanded resources and an innovative, client-first approach, she continues to guide individuals, families, and business owners through every phase of their financial journey.
