FINANCIAL PLANNER
Kacie Fawls, CFP® holds a Bachelor of Science in Finance from Virginia Tech’s CFP Certification Education track, a CFP Board Registered Program. She graduated Summa Cum Laude in May 2021.
Kacie began her career in financial planning with YeskeBuie as an Intern in June 2020, and is excited for the opportunity to help the firm’s Clients reach their goals with a tight-knit group of talented professionals as a full-time Assistant Financial Planner. Prior to joining YeskeBuie, Kacie began her professional career as a Finance Intern for the Department of Defense’s Defense Logistics Agency. She worked for the Financial Policy Team which was created to write official procedure documents to improve the agency’s internal controls.
In her free time, Kacie enjoys long runs and walks, biking, hiking, coffee talks, and finding new ways to turn plants into dessert!
Client Focus: Kacie believes in the importance of vulnerability in order to help foster a trusting environment for anyone she meets. She has a passion for helping people and gets a great sense of fulfillment from holding someone’s hand during the tough times — helping to alleviate stress and making someone’s life easier in any way that she can. She is excited to meet Clients and is ready to jump at any opportunity to serve them in order to best meet their needs.
Current Update: Spring is in the air and Kacie is keeping with the theme of growth going into the warmer months. Kacie recently spoke on a panel during George Mason’s RIA Day hosted by the school’s FPA student chapter, getting to share her “why” as a NexGen advisor. Kacie was also accepted into Golden Gate University’s Masters in Advanced Financial Planning program with a focus on Life Planning and is looking forward to developing skills to help connect and coach her Clients on a deeper level!
On a personal note, Kacie is thankful for all the time she gets to spend with friends. She recently spent time in Blacksburg for Spring Game to usher in the James Franklin era (really wild start) while catching up with her friends and their kids all in one house, watching their children form their own friendships. They will all be together again soon to celebrate their 4th annual Friendsgiving — a spring tradition that started when they learned that getting together during the normal Thanksgiving season was nearly impossible.
