Meet Igor Aronov, CFP®
I’ve spent most of my career where you are now — in the creative world, balancing design and business. For nearly 30 years in design and technology, including 14 years co-running FAR Creative, a successful design and development studio, I experienced firsthand the highs of doing creative work and the stress of managing the financial side.
Like many creative professionals, I struggled to find financial advice that truly fit my world. Taxes, cash flow, planning for the future… too often, the guidance I found was either too generic or too complex. At times, it led to decisions that weren’t the best for me and created a lot of unnecessary stress.
From running a business to putting kids through college, I’ve lived through the decisions you may be making now. I understand how financial choices are never just about numbers and how they’re tied to emotions, opportunities, and what matters most to you.
My role is to help you see the big picture, create a plan you understand, and guide you through each step so you feel confident about your money and your future.
Today, I bring those experiences into every client conversation. I understand the real-world pressures: from running a business to putting kids through college, and how financial decisions are never just about numbers. My goal is to help you feel confident and in control, no matter what life throws your way.
I am CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® professional and an active member of professional organizations that uphold the highest standards of fiduciary, fee-only planning: FPA, NAPFA, XYPN, Fee-Only Network and Advice-Only Network.
I earned my BFA in Photography from the School of Visual Arts and am an an award-winning photographer. I live in Brooklyn, NY, with my family and our dog. I work with clients locally and virtually across the country, so wherever you are, we can work together.
Financial planning isn’t just my profession; it’s my way of helping people simplify their lives, reduce stress, and pursue their goals with purpose.
Let’s create a financial plan that fits your story!
