Autumn Knutson, CFP®, is the Founder and Lead Financial Planner at Styled Wealth, a fee-only RIA serving impact-driven people. She guides people navigating complex and emotional decisions in aligning their resources to their uniquely defined vision of a 'wealthy life.'

With nearly a decade in financial planning and several years prior as an educator and counselor, Autumn has spent generous time learning what strategies help people act in alignment with their values and priorities. She is a five-time Investopedia Top 100 Advisor, an Advisory Board member for Forbes Advisor, and is listed on Financial Advisor's 2023 10 Young Advisors to Watch. She is routinely quoted in publications such as Investopedia, The Wall Street Journal, CNBC, NerdWallet, CBS News and Fortune. She is a former Financial Planning Association NexGen President and Teach for America Alumna and attributes many of her professional opportunities to her involvement in those communities.

Within the umbrella of comprehensive financial planning, Autumn has specific knowledge in supporting people through decisions on equity compensation, business strategy and projections, irregular cashflow management, sabbatical planning, and planning toward financial independence. Her background as a high school counselor has given her deep experience with college planning, advanced student loan strategies, FAFSA and CSS Profile knowledge, and of course, navigating complex emotions amidst important, life-changing decisions.

Autumn's personal life undoubtedly influences her ability to communicate as a financial planner. She is a first-generation high school and college graduate, holding a B.A. in Psychology from Whitman College. She is able to relate to people who find personal finance mystifying and empowers them toward a productive relationship with their personal finances. Much of her academic and professional knowledge came through mentors, luck, and a try, try again attitude. Autumn is a wife and a mother to two young children, who offer her opportunities to become a better person and communicator each day.
