Rachel Infante is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional and member of the Financial Planning Association. Serving clients at Birchwood Financial Partners, Inc. in Edina, MN and the surrounding communities.
Fueled by a desire to help people, Rachel Infante discovered financial planning to be a perfect fit with her passions.
She credits her past experiences, some challenging, for her ability to connect and build relationships with clients. Rachel’s greatest joy is coaching people through times of transition and change, and helping people work through their choices to make decisions that match their goals.
Rachel is originally a native of Texas, but has called Minnesota home for many years. Rachel currently lives in Victoria with her twins Amelia and Austin. She loves to travel, camp, hike and spend time outdoors as much as the Minnesota weather allows.
Rachel began college pursuing a degree in Finance with aspirations of becoming a financial analyst in the corporate world. After just one course in personal finance that all changed. She knew her passion for helping people and Financial Planning were a perfect fit.
Prior to joining Birchwood, Rachel worked for a family owned financial planning firm for over ten years, including roles such as Financial Advisor and more recently Chief Compliance Officer.
