Special Advisor

Donald W. Hance, CFP®, EA

I’ve spent most of my career helping people make good decisions with their money. That started with 34 years in banking — first at Wells Fargo, then Union Bank — where I managed branches, worked with high-net-worth clients, and led small business programs across the Los Angeles area. Along the way, I earned my CFP® designation and realized I wanted to do this work differently.

In 2007 I founded Glenmore Financial, a fee-only planning firm in Pacific Palisades, so I could give clients truly independent advice without product sales or conflicts of interest. I serve as a Special Advisor to LifeSighted, sharing what I’ve learned over a long career in financial services. I don’t work directly with LifeSighted clients, but I consult on cases where needed.
