Where It All Began: Stephanie’s Mission to Serve Her Community

From the start, Stephanie recognized a gap in the market for clear, accessible financial advice—particularly for retirees. After 15 years as a women’s pastor, her passion for helping others led her to embark on a new venture to empower her community with the knowledge to secure their financial futures. This marked the beginning of what would eventually become Fullerton Financial Planning.

Stephanie Launches her New Company, Financial Planning for Seniors Inc.

In 2005, Stephanie launched her new business, Financial Planning for Seniors Inc., and began holding seminars designed to equip retirees with the knowledge needed for a secure future. As she sought to grow her business, she went the extra mile—literally—by meeting with clients in their homes, traveling as far as Prescott and Mesa. Through these personal consultations, she provided her clients with the tools necessary to ensure their financial needs were met throughout retirement. It wasn’t long before she knew this was her true purpose—guiding others toward lasting financial security so they could enjoy the retirement they always dreamed of.

Steve Partners with Stephanie to Open an Insurance Firm

While Stephanie’s client base grew, Steve Fullerton was completing a distinguished 20-year career in law enforcement. After retiring from the force, Steve wanted to partner with Stephanie in furthering her mission. To support her growing business, he cashed out his IRA, and together, they opened an insurance firm in Sun City, marking the start of their joint venture into financial services.

A Year of Holistic Expansion

In 2024, Fullerton Financial Planning expanded its footprint with the opening of a third office in Scottsdale, Arizona—an important milestone in serving the growing needs of clients across the state. This year also marked the firm’s first local acquisition with the addition of IQ Wealth, a respected Valley-based firm. This strategic move not only enhanced Fullerton’s wealth management capabilities but also allowed the team to bring Steve Jurich’s 20+ years of experience into our group of experienced advisors, further broadening the services offered to clients. Alongside this, the launch of Fullerton Tax Services added in-house tax planning and preparation, reinforcing the firm’s commitment to delivering truly comprehensive, integrated financial solutions.
