“Financial planning isn’t about how much you know or how much you have. It’s about understanding where you are, knowing where you want to go, and having someone who can meet you there.”

Financial Advisor
Shane Stelma, ChFC®, CLU®, is a Financial Advisor and Managing Associate with Alliance Financial Group. He works with individuals and families on topics including retirement, investments, protection, debt, and long-term planning. His approach begins with learning what matters to each client and explaining financial concepts in a way that meets them where they are.
Shane studied accounting as an undergraduate and began his career in accounting while pursuing a master’s degree in finance. Drawn to the opportunity to help people better understand their money, he moved into financial services. Today, he uses a whole-picture approach to help clients see how their income, assets, liabilities, protection, and goals relate to one another.
In addition to working with clients, Shane mentors new advisors and helps facilitate training at Alliance Financial Group. He also co-hosts the firm’s Business Casual podcast with Keith Smith, bringing financial topics into everyday conversation.
