San Francisco

Financial Planning.

We deliver customized, comprehensive financial planning in San Francisco and across the nation. Our mission: address your financial needs and goals — and show you how to reach them with clarity and confidence.

Everyone has financial goals. Not everyone knows how they'll get there.

How much risk should I take to reach my goals? Do I have enough to retire — and at what age? How do I save for my children's education and my retirement at the same time? How can I be as tax-efficient as possible?

We specialize in answering these questions with tailored, tax-aware financial strategies backed by years of experience in California financial planning and investment planning.

Testimonials

What our clients are saying about us.

Mar 12, 2026
Twin Peaks Wealth Advisors has been one of the best financial decisions my wife and I have made. Vishal, Sultan, and Stephen have a rare ability to meet clients where they are. Even with my wife and I who learn completely differently, they made complex financial concepts click for both of us. They're also genuinely intentional: a thoughtful agenda before every call, a summary after, a running action item timeline on your member portal, and periodic market updates that have been especially welcome given how much the world has thrown at us lately. I recommend them without hesitation.

I've worked with Tushar and Twin Peaks for over 10 years! It's been amazing to watch the practice grow from the ground up. As they've grown they've consistently put a focus on hiring advisors that take the time to truly understand my financial goals and provide thoughtful, personalized guidance rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Communication has always been clear and proactive, and I appreciate how they explain complex financial topics in a way that's easy to understand.

We've been with them for 10+ years. Tushar and Vishal have always kept us well informed and guided, helping to make smart decisions with our investments. Lately, we've even been enjoying their community building events which have been a blast. I highly recommend working with them.

We have been clients of Twin Peaks since 2018. Tushar and Vishal are a dynamic duo that we have a great deal of trust and respect for. They have guided us as our family has grown from one child to three. They are up to date with the latest market activity and have a very strong knowledge base to help you prepare for your financial goals, whatever they may be!

Apr 10, 2025
A year ago, we switched from our long time financial adviser to Twin Peaks because we wanted a more personalized and diversified approach than we were getting at a large financial institution. We are so glad we made that decision. We are extremely pleased with the advice we have received as well as the professionalism, responsiveness, nimbleness, and sophistication of the Twin Peaks team.

I am incredibly impressed with Tushar and his team at Twin Peaks. As wealth managers, they exemplify professionalism and dedication. Their attention to detail is truly outstanding; you can tell that they take the time to understand every aspect of their clients' financial situations. Above all, their genuine care for their clients is what makes them exceptional.

I have been working with Twin Peaks Wealth Advisors for more than a year and I should say their commitment to service is phenomenal. More than being financial advisors, what exceeded my expectations was they are there to spend time with me and advise me on many matters related to finance above and beyond investments. Very reachable advisors, and I love their flexibility based on my goals and personality.

We've been working with Vishal and Tushar for a decade now. We trust them with not only our larger long term investments but have also over the years run nearly every financial decision by them. Nothing is too big or too small. We've an open, honest and mutually respectful relationship and trust them implicitly.

Brian Nguyen at Twin Peaks has been my financial advisor for 10 years, through some volatile market fluctuations (to say the least) but he's always been great at seeing the opportunities in any situation. He explains things without too much jargon, in layman's terms. My long term portfolio has grown and gives me a feeling of security.
