Amber Braatz, MBA, CFP®
Advisor
What is your role at ANTOLINO Wealth Advisors?
As a fiduciary Wealth Advisor, I help clients navigate their path into and through retirement, with a focus on achieving the lifestyle they envisioned years earlier while accumulating the assets to support it. Transitioning from saving for retirement to living in retirement requires a significant adjustment, and I excel at guiding clients through this important and exciting phase of life. I earned a Master of Business Administration in 2005 and hold the Certified Financial Planner® designation. In addition to comprehensive financial planning, I incorporate critical elements tailored to each individual and family, including tax planning and portfolio tax efficiency, estate planning, and asset protection strategies.
Tell us about yourself and your family.
I have lived in Southwest Florida since I was three years old and have witnessed many changes over the years. My significant other, Ron, and I enjoy traveling and sailing. My daughter and I are both graduates of the University of Florida — Go Gators! She is 21 years old and works as a professional dog handler and editor/writer. We share our home with two dogs: an English Setter named Norman and a Chesapeake Bay Retriever named Styx.
Why did you pursue a career in finance?
I have a passion for helping people achieve both their financial and life goals. I chose to join Antolino Wealth Advisors because of the firm’s unwavering commitment to always putting clients first. That culture aligns closely with my personal values and the way I approach both my career and my life. I believe thoughtful financial planning empowers individuals and families to pursue what matters most while remaining prepared for the future.
What do you do for fun?
I enjoy playing tennis, roller skating, practicing martial arts, hiking, snorkeling, and sailing. Staying active energizes me, and that same drive carries into my work, where I develop optimized and creative solutions to address the complexities of each client’s situation.
