Matt Lenhart
I help individuals and families who are new to budgeting get started with YNAB and ensure their spending habits match their priorities. As an experienced software coach, I hope to make learning app-based personal finance simple and straightforward.
My Background
As a software coach for nearly 20 years, I enjoy finding creative ways to solve challenges using technology. I have managed my family's budget through multiple stages of life - living on our own for the first time, getting married, buying a home, having children - and understand how important a tool like YNAB is to everyone who wants to take the stress out of their financial life.
Why Work with Me
I combine a conversational coaching style and technical know-how to help clients better understand the software they are using while focusing on the "why" behind budgeting and personal finance. I enjoy discussing general finance topics like savings account rates and credit cards or getting into the nuts and bolts of YNAB targets, scheduled transactions, and more.
Why I Coach
The concept of consciously choosing how to spend and save money didn't resonate with me until after I had a family. Finding YNAB and creating a real budget allowed us to continue managing the day to day, but also plan for the future and make our money work toward achieving long-term goals. I hope to use my experience to help others make this connection as early as possible and establish good personal finance habits for the long run.
