A DESIRE FOR MORE SUPPORT AND INNOVATION
A BOLD IDEA FROM KELVIN KIM LEAD TO THE STRESS-FREE SOLUTION FOR COLLEGE FUNDING.
Kelvin Kim is a financial advisor, specializing in retirement and college financial planning. He has 30 years of experience as a leader in the financial industry and international business and has leveraged his knowledge to help many families in designing a customized financial plan that fits their various needs.

Through the College Funding Balance concept, Kim devises a practical and balanced financial plan for each client based on a thorough analysis of the desired retirement plan and the child’s long term education goals, while taking into account any potential financial aid and scholarship opportunities as well loan repayment options. He hopes that his service could be the stress-free solution to achieving your family’s retirement and education goals.
