Meet Tanya Aure of Comprehensive College Planning in Point Loma

Today we’d like to introduce you to Tanya Aure.

I grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and I am a first-generation Filipina. I went to college and law school in Cleveland, Ohio. After law school, I moved to San Diego, got married and then moved to Washington, DC. I was a legal editor with what is now Bloomberg Law for several years and then moved back to San Diego with one kid in tow and pregnant with my second. Unfortunately, I went through a divorce a couple of years after we returned to San Diego. My main concern when we divorced were my boys. I wanted to make sure their financial future was secure, especially when it came to college. When I spoke to my financial advisor about how to protect the money we had already put aside for college, I discovered that college planning was its own niche in the financial industry. At that point, I had just finished my last freelancing project and was looking to build a business in San Diego.
