In this episode we talk with Ann Garcia, ski mom, Certified Financial Planner and author. Ann is known in the financial industry as “The College Financial Lady”, helping families plan for their children’s education.

Ann learned to ski at age 3 in Lake Tahoe, and after a harrowing first ski trip, her family became ski hippies, packing up their VW bus and heading out to different destinations from Wyoming to Utah.
