Retirement income planning for high-earning women.
Selena engineers retirement income for women who have done everything right: built the career, saved diligently, carried more than their share. Her plans show them, in one picture, exactly when work becomes a choice.
Selena is a wealth management advisor at Applied Wealth Management, based in the firm’s Atlanta office and serving clients nationwide. Her specialty is retirement income planning for high-earning women: she maps every account, benefit, and obligation into one picture, then engineers an income built to last. She holds the CFP® certification and the RICP®, the industry’s deepest credential in retirement income.
The industry has noticed: NAIFA Atlanta named her one of its Top Women Advisors and one of its Top Advisors Under 40, and she is a regular voice on podcasts and conference stages on why high-earning women remain the most underserved clients in wealth management. Her clients notice something simpler. Women who built careers, raised families, and saved diligently can finally answer the question underneath it all: am I going to be okay? Selena answers it with the whole picture laid out in front of them.
The whole-picture habit has a history. Before financial planning, Selena spent fourteen years in information technology, and she brought its discipline with her: don’t trust a plan until you can see every part of it working together.
“Clarity creates freedom. Freedom gives you time. And time is what gives you options.”

Selena speaks and writes regularly about wealth, ownership, and the financial conversations women deserve to be part of.
Selena joins Dr. Tashana Thompson on Conversations Beyond the Brand to unpack why so many high-achieving women carry shame around money, the risk of delegating your finances entirely to a partner, and how the Work Optional framework rebuilds clarity, control, and confidence.
Selena joined the speaker lineup at OUTFRONT, a three-day women-in-leadership conference at The Leadership Center, on visibility, ownership, and what it takes for women to be seen.
