About Valoria Wealth Management
I created Valoria Wealth Management to help high-earning women in the tech industry get clear, organized, and tax-efficient strategies for their equity compensation. Many of my clients manage RSUs, stock options, ESPPs, recurring vesting schedules, and concentrated stock positions while navigating demanding roles and limited time. My firm is designed to give them straightforward guidance that simplifies these decisions and avoids costly tax mistakes.As a solo advisor, I work directly with every client. There are no handoffs, no junior staff, and no generic planning templates. This structure allows me to build highly tailored plans that address the specific challenges women in tech face, including compensation changes, job transitions, acquisitions, liquidity events, and long-term investment planning.
I serve clients nationwide, especially in technology hubs such as San Francisco, Seattle, Los Angeles, Austin, Boston, and New York. My focus is helping women understand their equity, reduce tax drag, create a clear financial strategy, and use their wealth to support the career and lifestyle decisions that matter most to them.

Wealthtender® is a trusted, independent financial directory and educational resource governed by our strict Editorial Policy, Integrity Standards, and Terms of Use. While we receive compensation from featured professionals (a natural conflict of interest), we always operate with integrity and transparency to earn your trust.

We Want Your Voice to be Heard
Wealthtender exists to help people discover trusted and authentic financial professionals and educators who may be a good fit based on their unique needs and circumstances.
Your honest reviews help people decide which financial professionals and educators may be best suited to their individual needs.
The majority of people trust reviews as much as personal recommendations, so what you write in your review should reflect your own opinion and experience.
Tips for Writing a Helpful Review
Be descriptive. Instead of just saying what you like or dislike, share why. What have you enjoyed most or least about your experience with the provider? Have they helped you overcome a difficult financial challenge or strengthened your knowledge about particular money matters? The more details, the better!
Be honest. Your rating and review should reflect your actual experience.
Stay relevant. Ensure your review is helpful to others by avoiding off-topic discussions or personal opinions not relevant to your direct experience.
Make your review easy to read. Reviews should be readable to others. Use proper grammar, avoid excessive capitalization or punctuation, and be sure to check your spelling.
Be yourself. Don’t post as, or pretend to be, someone else, and do not say you’re associated with a person or organization with which you are not.
Be nice. Don’t write abusive, hateful, threatening, or harassing content. Avoid personal threats, hate speech, obscenities, or inflammatory language.
Respect the privacy of others. Don’t post information that can be used to identify another individual or compromise their privacy.
Report abuse. Thank you for helping us ensure reviews on Wealthtender are helpful to everyone. If you suspect possible violations of our guidelines or believe a review is inappropriate, please email support@wealthtender.com with a link to the provider’s profile, indicating the review in question and the reason you believe it violates our guidelines.
