is a partner and senior wealth advisor at Wood Financial Group, and stands as a model of excellence, empathy, and innovation in the US financial advisory landscape.

Unlike many peers, Biggerstaff entered the financial industry as a second career. Her transition was sparked by dissatisfaction with the advice she received during the tumultuous market downturns of 2000 and 2008. Seeking clarity and control of her finances, she dove into education, initially with no intention of launching a new career.

“What began as a personal journey has grown into a career centered around enabling others to feel confident and at peace with their financial decisions.”

Biggerstaff’s success is defined by a long-term mindset, both for her clients and her own career.
​
“There’s a deep sense of fulfillment that comes from helping individuals and families feel secure and empowered in their financial lives,” she says. “That ongoing impact — day in and day out — is incredibly rewarding and reminds me why I do this work.” This client-first philosophy is reflected in the lasting relationships and trust she inspires.

A hallmark of Biggerstaff’s leadership is her ability to balance strategic vision with relational depth. As both a team leader and a hands-on advisor, she navigates the challenge of developing a high-performing, collaborative team while delivering personalized advice to every client. She leverages technology to streamline operations, but not at the expense of the human touch, citing the need to be “analytical, intentional, and empathetic all at once”.
​
Professionally, Biggerstaff is distinguished by her capacity for deep listening. She takes the time to understand each client’s unique circumstances, aspirations, and concerns. “That foundation of trust allows me to craft tailored strategies that align with what matters most to them.”
​
Biggerstaff’s commitment to continuous learning and remaining ahead of the curve is another key to success. She stays abreast of market trends, regulatory changes, and economic shifts through ongoing education and active engagement with professional networks. This ensures her advice is not only relevant but forward-thinking, positioning her clients to navigate complexity and seize opportunity. During all client interactions, Biggerstaff believes in full transparency, even when conversations become difficult.
​
What truly distinguishes Biggerstaff is her holistic, value-driven approach. She views every client relationship as a partnership, and every career phase as a chance to grow and contribute.
​
“For me, delivering for clients means helping them grow financially while living the lifestyle they’ve envisioned,” explains Biggerstaff. “True satisfaction comes when clients feel confident, supported, and aligned with their financial plan.”
