About Angel Melgoza, MS, CFP®, CSLP®

Hi, I'm Angel Melgoza. I serve as the Director of Financial Planning and Lead Planner at YFP Wealth.

In my role, I streamline the firm’s financial planning process, create internal efficiencies, and continuously improve the client experience. As Lead Planner, I lead client relationships with the YFP Wealth Planning Team, taking the complexities of financial planning and converting them into simple, intentional solutions. I also mentor financial planners on the team through collaboration and ongoing support.

I earned my BBA in Finance from the University of Texas Pan-American (now UTRGV) and my MS in Personal Financial Planning from Texas Tech University, where I also completed a Graduate Certificate in Charitable Financial Planning.

I’ve taken a traditional career path from Paraplanner to Owner, with stops in insurance, banking, and tax preparation along the way. Joining YFP in December 2022 allowed me to focus on what I love: financial planning, spending time with family, and training the next generation of advisors.

Outside of the office, I love spending time with my wife, Valerie, daughter, Lilly, and our two cocker spaniels, Charlie and Sammy. I enjoy staying active through exercise, catching a good movie, and learning something new.

Comprehensive Financial Planning with a Trusted Advisor

✅ Wealthtender Certified Advisor Review™
Mar 10, 2026
I’ve had a fantastic experience working with Angel Melgoza at YFP Wealth Management. Angel takes a truly comprehensive approach to financial planning and helped me build a clear strategy across several important areas of my financial life. He worked closely with me on retirement planning, helping map out long-term goals and creating a realistic path to reach them. At the same time, he helped refine my budgeting strategy so that my day-to-day finances align with those larger goals. Angel also provided thoughtful guidance on investment planning, making sure my portfolio matches my risk tolerance while staying focused on long-term growth. One area I particularly appreciated was his help with estate planning. Angel made what can often feel like a complicated topic much easier to understand and helped ensure that the right structures are in place to protect my family and future. Angel is knowledgeable, patient, and extremely responsive. He takes the time to explain the “why” behind each recommendation, which builds a lot of confidence in the process. If you’re looking for a financial planner who can help with retirement, budgeting, investments, and estate planning in a clear and thoughtful way, I highly recommend working with Angel. Working with him has given me a much stronger sense of direction and confidence in my financial future.

Great financial planner

After the loss of my husband, I was overwhelmed and unsure how to manage my finances on my own. Working with my financial planner has been an incredible blessing during a very difficult time. He has been very patient, knowledgeable, and truly compassionate while helping me organize and plan my financial future. He took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I felt comfortable with each decision. What meant the most was that he understood the emotional side of losing a spouse while also guiding me through the practical financial steps I needed to take. Because of his guidance, I now feel much more confident about my financial situation and my future. I am very grateful for his professionalism, honesty, and genuine care. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a financial planner who is both highly skilled and truly supportive.

By far the best part of partnering with the YFP Wealth team is that they ACTUALLY care. As a young family at the mid-point of our career, having YFP in our corner to help solidify our financial goals has been invaluable! Thanks YFP 🙏
