Christine Koenings
President, Financial Advisor
The advice and counsel Christine received from her father at a young age has stayed with her throughout her financial services career. He inspired Christine to take charge of her life, and she did so at a young age. Today, she guides her clients to help inspire them to take charge of their financial lives.
It was during her first finance course in college that she gained her love for investing. Christine combines her constant commitment to studying the economy and the markets, with her passion for in-depth portfolio and investment research, to bring her clients the knowledge and experience they need to help pursue their financial goals.
Christine is president of Choice Financial Planning and she has been helping investors since the late 1980s. She founded her firm in 2003 after several years of experience with major brokerage firms. Through her partnership with her clients, she helps them work through everything from basic cash flow needs to pursuing their lifelong goals, such as retirement.
Providing integrity, honesty, and helping her clients feel a sense of joy when they know they can accomplish their goals—these are the things that give Christine her greatest sense of professional satisfaction. “Being an independent advisor and having the ability to serve my clients’ best interests is the driving force for why I established my firm. I love being by their side and seeing them reach their dreams.”
Christine attended the University of Wisconsin–Whitewater, WI. She is registered as a General Securities Representative and Investment Adviser Representative of Commonwealth Financial Network®, and she holds Arizona and Florida life insurance licenses.
An active member of her local community, Christine supports several charitable organizations. When she is not following the economy or meeting with clients, Christine and her husband, Troy, love spending time at home in Ahwatukee, Phoenix, Arizona with their beagle, Lumen. They also enjoy traveling for both business and pleasure, wine tasting, hiking, reading, and exploring beautiful Arizona, the U. S. and many parts of the world.
