Damion Dengler, CFP^®, CPA

Building lasting relationships with my clients is one of the most fulfilling aspects of my job. I love sharing in their milestones and seeing their retirement dreams come to life. I've been helping clients figure out the puzzle of retirement planning since 2004. Everyone's situation is unique, and I genuinely enjoy the challenge and the process from start to finish. I’ve always had a knack for working with numbers, but I found accounting unfulfilling. Transitioning to financial planning allowed me to combine my love for numbers with the joy of working directly with people. Seeing my clients reach their goals and share in their happiness is incredibly rewarding.

I graduated from Frostburg State University with a major in Accounting and a minor in German Language. Growing up in Hyattsville, MD, in Prince George's County, I loved being close to Washington, DC. After college, I moved to Baltimore and now enjoy living in northern Baltimore County.

When I'm not helping clients or spending time with my family, I enjoy the outdoors. You’ll often find me hiking trails with my kids or camping. I also have a passion for fitness, including gym workouts, weight training, and martial arts training in Krav Maga and Muay Thai. I used to play rugby for 12 years during and after college with a local men’s club. Nowadays, I mostly spectate but still join an occasional practice or weekend tournament.

I have four children ranging from elementary to high school, and we’re starting to travel more as a family. Whether it’s the beaches of North Carolina or Disney in Florida, I’m excited to spend as much time with them as possible before they head off to college. Outside of work, I believe in giving back to the community. I regularly donate blood to the American Red Cross and contribute to the Maryland Food Bank and St. Jude's.
