Get to Know Us

What to expect when you walk through our door

You won’t find a marble lobby or a row of suits here. Our office is designed to feel comfortable, familiar, and welcoming. It’s the kind of place where the coffee’s always fresh and someone’s always listening.

We're in this

The word 'together' written in green cursive font.

When you work with CURO, you’ll feel the difference right away. It’s not just that we’re women-led, or that we specialize in complex financial decisions—it’s how we show up for you, especially when the stakes are high and life feels heavy.

Clients often come to us through someone they trust. A friend, a family member, a therapist, an attorney.

“Go see Marianna. She’ll take care of you.”

These are words that lead so many of our clients to us over the years.  And that’s really how CURO was built—one thoughtful conversation at a time. Not through ads or algorithms, but by showing up with clarity, care, and follow-through.

"I have been working with Marianna and her team at CURO for nearly 10 years and I could not be happier. I came to her without a good understanding of how to get my financial ducks in a row and build wealth. Marianna has supported me as I’ve created financial goals and achieved them. I’ve recommended her to countless friends - she listens, she cares - you aren’t just a number with this team, and it shows."

The conversations that matter

We understand that money is personal. And talking about it can be hard, especially when it's tied to career changes, divorce, grief, and family responsibilities.

That’s why everything we do is designed to feel human and grounded.

We’ll walk through it all with you, in plain language, and at a pace that respects your bandwidth.

What guides us

At the heart of it all, a few simple beliefs shape the way we work: These are the ways we show up for our clients and for each other, every day.

Money is personal, and for many of us, it's tied to everything we carry: family, independence, caregiving, career, security, and our dreams. That understanding shapes how we show up:

  • Creating a space where you can talk openly without feeling judged, rushed, or talked down to

  • Listening for what's really underneath the numbers

  • Explaining decisions clearly, so you understand your options and feel confident

  • Supporting you through real-life changes like divorce, retirement, inheritance, career changes, caregiving, and starting over

  • Helping you build financial independence not just for yourself, but for the people and generations you care about

Strong women can change the world

The CURO Story

Once upon a time, in an industry not built for women, Marianna Goldenberg decided to build something that was. She named it CURO — Latin for "to take care" — and created a women-led firm where clients could feel heard, supported, and empowered.

Guided by family, independence, and helping others, we walk with women through life's biggest financial decisions. Because here, "We're in this together" is the whole story.

Who’s behind CURO

We’re a strong, smart team, each with our own path, perspective, and purpose. We bring care, standing beside clients through some of life’s most complex moments, offering not just expertise and empathy.

We’ve made hard decisions ourselves. And we’ve helped hundreds do the same with clarity, confidence, and dignity.

If you’re just looking

This isn’t about selling services. It’s about showing up when it matters. And if you’re not ready to talk yet—that’s okay too. There’s space for you here, whenever you’re ready.
