As a Financial Professional, Lanaya works with a wide array of clients, both in the private and public sector. Her business focus is in the areas of Retirement Planning, Wealth Management Strategies, College Savings, Estate Planning Strategies, and Life Insurance.  She is passionate about working within the public sector and considers herself a public service financial professional catering to the teachers and employees of the East Valley school districts.

She spent 6 years in the finance industry working for a major national bank before pursuing her passion of entering a more client-focused environment where she could make a more meaningful contribution to her clients’ financial futures.

Lanaya is a graduate of the University of California, Davis where she double-majored in Communications and Human Development. A native of Northern California, she appreciated growing up in a small town and running around her grandparents working farm and orchards.

She has lived in Philadelphia and has traveled extensively throughout Europe, which has given her a better understanding of various cultures and demographics. Lanaya moved to Chandler, Arizona in 2013 and much to the dismay of her family back in California, loves being an Arizonian and doesn’t plan on leaving.

First and foremost in her life is her expressive and fun loving daughter, Reagan and her husband Michael. Lanaya is an avid baseball, hockey and football fan, loves to travel and explore new things or sit at home with a good book. As a board member of the Chandler Education Foundation, Lanaya loves giving back to her community and is teaching her daughter the values of caring and philanthropy.
