About

Kaki Perdue founded Look Both Ways Financial to help people approaching retirement, after seeing how hard it was for her own parents to find specific retirement advice that wasn't tied to asset management. Before becoming a CFP® professional, she spent 12 years in audit as a CPA, including five years auditing 401(k) plans, and six years as CFO of a sports ticketing business.

Kaki helps clients work out retirement income, taxes in retirement, Roth conversions, the bond side of a portfolio, inherited IRA withdrawals and tax-efficient giving. She loves tax planning and believes emotions shape money decisions, so she keeps planning personal, meets clients without judgment and teaches at every step. The firm's name comes from her dad's driver's ed advice: even on a green light, look both ways.

She gardens, hikes, skis, golfs and plays pickleball.
