About Michael Hollis, CFP®

Hi, I'm Michael Hollis, financial planner and founder of TapestryFP. I am a CFP® professional, hold a Series 65 license, and am a Ramsey Solutions Certified Master Financial Coach, equipping me with a broad skill set to address a wide range of financial planning needs.

My expertise spans key financial planning areas, including cash flow management, tax strategies, retirement planning, and estate planning. I am dedicated to ensuring clients feel confident, informed, and supported as they work toward achieving their financial goals and building a secure future.

In addition to my advisory role, I have facilitated Financial Peace University and mentored young students through Foundations in Personal Finance, demonstrating my commitment to financial education and empowerment.

I live in Aurora with my wife and two sons. Outside of work, I enjoy mountain biking, watching movies, traveling with my family, and playing a myriad of games.
