Wyoming Financial Educators Council: About, Mission, Advisory Board

Aaron Cruz

Financial Consultant & Certified Educator

Aaron Cruz, BA, CFEI®, and owner of Unbroken Finance in Sheridan, Wyoming, has earned a reputation for translating complex financial topics into educational tools people can actually use in their real lives. He holds a Bachelor’s degree in Finance from the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs. His career trajectory has included 14 years as a partner in Tactical Financial Solutions, earning the Certified Financial Education Instructor (CFEI®) designation through the NFEC, and donating his time to provide financial education with Volunteers of America Northern Rockies.

Cruz cites his own personal money challenges as a young adult as the motivation behind his current mission to help others gain financial capability and stability. He established Unbroken to bring financial wellness education and resources into treatment centers and to help people navigating the recovery process and/or rebuilding their lives after incarceration. To accomplish these objectives, Aaron builds curriculum, teaches classes, and coaches individuals and business owners one-on-one to build and maintain strong financial foundations that support their life and professional goals. By bridging gaps between theory and practical, real-world skills, he facilitates people to transform not only their financial plans, but their mindsets and confidence.

Aaron Cruz’s goal for participating on the Wyoming Financial Educators Council Advisory Board is to expand the organization’s reach to bring top-quality financial wellness resources to individuals and families from all socioeconomic backgrounds, particularly communities in transition and recovery. Both his financial literacy program experience and his professional expertise position him uniquely to make meaningful contributions to the WYFEC’s mission. Aaron hopes to support that vision by raising standards of financial wellness in communities all across the Equality State.

Outside his professional pursuits, Aaron Cruz is also a proud father and outdoor enthusiast who balances his spare time on trails, coaching and playing sports, and getting involved in his hometown Sheridan community.
