About Gunnar
A Washington native, Gunnar originally grew up in Western Washington, but after a collective seven years between Washington State University and Gonzaga University, Eastern Washington now feels like home. Gunnar is proud to serve the Spokane community by helping individuals and families plan for the future through thoughtful, personalized estate planning.
With a deep commitment to understanding each client’s values and long-term goals, Gunnar uses a range of estate planning tools—from time-tested to cautiously innovative—to help preserve wealth and protect what matters most. He recognizes the importance of leaving a lasting legacy for future generations and works closely with clients to ensure their plans reflect both their wishes and their unique stories.
Come say hello if you ever see him at a Coug game or out on the slopes.
