About Me

Ally Jane Ayers (AJ) is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ who specializes in helping creatives and tech professionals build wealth. In her 20s she watched so many friends succeed creatively while still struggling with their finances and realized it was time to do something about it so she started a financial education podcast and went back to school to become a financial planner.

AJ launched BKFi with Shane shortly after his guest appearance on her podcast. She’s also an Enrolled Agent and a Certified Equity Professional. With her expertise in tax planning surrounding stock options, she has helped dozens of clients transform a windfall into a path to financial independence.

As a writer and editor with a strong background in communications, AJ is passionate about delivering BKFi's message to our clients and the community.

About our Firm

Brooklyn Fi is a full-service financial planning, tax, and investment firm specializing in tech professionals and creatives on the path to financial independence.

We're based in Brooklyn but have employees and clients all over the world.

We help our clients get their financial lives together, make smart moves with the money they have, and make smart plans for what's to come. We advise on a vast array of strategies in our comprehensive financial planning process.

The F.I. in Brooklyn F.I. stands for Financial Independence. The central idea at the core of our planning practice is that money is just a tool to live your best life.

We know something most financial advisors and planners don’t know—that a passion is more important than a salary. We like to think that we specialize in turning side hustles into nest eggs.

As financial planners, we seek to provide a holistic picture of your net worth and a path to financial independence at any age. We’ll take care of everything from raising your credit score to funding your retirement.

By becoming a Brooklyn FI client, you're joining a network of creative and technology professionals who are succeeding, not just scraping by.

To make Wealthtender free for readers, we earn a nominal monthly fee from financial advisors and firms in exchange for marketing services (including being featured on this profile page), subject to terms of use. This compensation creates a natural conflict of interest when we favor their promotion over others. Wealthtender is not a client of these advisors or firms. Testimonials may not be representative of other clients’ experiences and do not guarantee future performance or success.
