Leighann Miko

Leighann Miko is a Certified Financial Planner (CFP) and the founder of Equalis Financial, a California & Oregon-based independent fee-only firm specializing in financial planning, business management, and responsible investment management services. With a passion to empower and equip underserved communities, Leighann works with thoughtfully ambitious professionals, especially LGBTQ+ creatives in the entertainment industry. Her goal is to help them stay in their right brain by acting as a stand-in for their left brain.

With a commitment to human-centered financial planning, Leighann devotes time to understand the whole person before addressing their finances. This intentional approach was born from a desire to help others create the financially secure life she never thought she'd have. Having grown up in a household faced with constant financial volatility, Leighann recognizes the value of financial stability. Knowing what it's like to be underestimated herself, her mission became clear: to balance the financial playing field for all.
