About Ariella
Ariella (Ari) D. Murphy
Associate Paraplanner
I’m a Finance 💰 and Accounting 📈 student at Chico State University, passionate about financial wellness and helping others achieve their goals. Through involvement in the Financial Planning Club, Student-Managed Investment Fund, Venture Capital Club, and Accounting Society, I’ve gained hands-on experience in financial analysis and strategy. I’ve also competed in top competitions, including the Venture Capital Investment Competition and the Financial Planning Competition—earning top-three placements. With multiple Associate’s degrees in business and economics, I bring a strong academic and practical background. Outside of finance, I enjoy hiking, fitness, and time by the ocean 🌊.
