My name is Chris Phillips, owner of Frontstage Financial. I graduated UT Arlington with a Finance Degree and have been a professional in the financial industry since 2007.

I use two words to describe my practice... Trust and confidence! As a fiduciary, we strive to build trust with clients, with our goal being to put their financial futures in capable hands.

I offer customized financial planning solutions to families, individuals and small businesses.

If you are curious about working with Frontstage Financial let's get started with an introductory phone call! See Contact Me section below.

Based on client's financial needs and goals, we embark on what is called The Discovery Phase. I collect all pertinent financial information in order to develop a custom tailored plan.

My approach is not telling my clients what to do, but simply present recommended investment/planning options and have my clients tell me what they like best

Once we've reached a plan/strategy that the client is comfortable with we start the process of implementing the plan. This stage typically includes the opening of account(s).

After Plan Implementation, I offer check ins every quarter to clients. Sometimes more or less depending on client's needs. We seek to do a thorough review of the financial plan and any other pertinent financial changes in client's lives.

Financial planning doesn't just stop at investing, asset protection, debt management. I am not a licensed CPA or attorney, but I work closely with these professionals that I can refer clients to. Taxes and estate planning are critical components of an overall financial plan.
