About

Less noise,
more strategy

Lilac Wealth is a wealth management firm based in Venice, CA serving tech professionals, VCs, and senior executives who want a clear, integrated strategy for their financial lives.

Our approach

Helping you discover where you want to go

Most wealth advisors aren't built for the way tech & VC compensation actually works. RSUs, options, secondary sales, and liquidity events bring real complexity, and the wrong moves can cost more than the right investments earn. We built Lilac specifically for this: investments, equity compensation, fund economics, and tax, for tech professionals, founders, and VCs managing meaningful wealth. The relationship comes first. You get a level of service you won't find at a larger firm, a vetted network of attorneys, CPAs, and private client specialists, and technology that keeps everything in one place.
