Richelle Hofer
CRPC® AAMS® AWMA®

Founder & CEO of Impact Wealth Management

Richelle Hofer is the kind of financial advisor who can build a portfolio and drop the perfect analogy to make it all make sense. A child of the ’90s with a soft spot for denim jackets and the NFL draft (yes, it makes her cry every year), Richelle blends heart, humor, and hard-won experience to guide clients into a retirement that feels deeply aligned with their values.

She founded Impact Wealth after nearly two decades in the traditional financial world—years that taught her what she didn’t want in a firm. Flat fees. Fewer clients. Real relationships. That’s what she built instead.

An ESTJ and Enneagram 8 (with a healthy side of 1 and 3), Richelle is driven, direct, and deeply people-focused. Her greatest joy is hearing someone’s life story—the wins, the wounds, the moments that shaped them. Because when you understand someone’s journey, you understand their money story too. And that’s where the real planning begins.

Richelle lives with her husband (a die-hard Chiefs fan) and is a proud boy mom to two adult sons. Her favorite verse is Psalm 62:5—“My hope comes from Him”—and it’s the truth she returns to every time life feels uncertain. At work and in life, she’s all in.

Heather Moore
FPQP®

Director of Operations & Client Experience

Heather Moore is the heart and heartbeat of Impact Wealth. As Director of Operations & Client Experience, she’s the one making sure no detail is missed, no form goes unprocessed, and no client ever feels like just another name in a system. She’s the friendly voice on the phone, the brain behind the logistics, and the reason everything runs smoothly behind the scenes.

Clients turn to Heather when they need help with service requests, website logins, or just a real person who genuinely wants to help. She’s known for her precision, her calm presence, and her ability to keep everything organized down to the tiniest detail. Simply put: nothing falls through the cracks on Heather’s watch.

Before entering the world of financial planning, Heather spent years in client-facing roles, including a memorable stretch as a travel agent. That role sparked her love for new experiences and meticulous planning—skills she now uses to orchestrate exceptional client service.

An ESFJ and Enneagram 3, Heather is a blend of deep empathy and drive. She’s faith-filled, people-focused, and always looking for ways to serve others with excellence. Outside of work, she’s a gifted singer with a powerhouse voice, a music lover, and a passionate antique-hunter alongside her husband. Their weekends often include concert tickets or wandering through old shops in search of hidden gems. But perhaps the role she cherishes most is being “Mom.” According to her six-year-old daughter, Heather’s favorite color is teal, she helps take care of the family dog, and they love going to the library, playing together, and giving each other hugs and kisses.

Rooted in faith, guided by empathy, and endlessly curious about the world, Heather is the kind of person who brings both order and inspiration wherever she goes. And at Impact Wealth, she’s one of the reasons clients feel not just served—but seen.

Michael J. Peterson
CFP®

Financial Advisor

Mike Peterson doesn’t just build financial plans—he builds relationships. As a Financial Advisor at Impact Wealth, Mike brings decades of experience and a deep curiosity about people to every client conversation. Whether he’s helping someone plan for retirement, think through their estate, or sort out complex tax strategies, his goal is always the same: meet people where they are, and walk alongside them toward where they want to be.

Mike’s journey into financial planning wasn’t linear—but it was deeply intentional. After earning his degree in economics, he opened a small business and took a job as a bank teller to help support his young family. One thing led to another, and he soon found himself in a hybrid role as a personal banker and part-time financial advisor. It didn’t take long to realize that helping people with their financial futures was where his heart truly was.

Known on the team as “Mr. Personable,” Mike has a rare gift for connecting with anyone. He believes that every person has a story worth understanding, and that listening well is just as important as giving good advice. Clients describe him as kind, trustworthy, and refreshingly down-to-earth—someone who truly cares, works hard, and always follows through.

Outside the office, Mike is most at home in the great outdoors. He enjoys hiking, big game hunting, vacations with his family, and just about every game imaginable—from strategy board games to yard games. A lifelong baseball fan and former player, he follows the Minnesota Twins and Vikings religiously. Fun fact: as a teenager, Mike was a ball boy for the Vikings thanks to his uncle, who was the team’s business manager.

Mike’s life mantra is simple: Love God. Love people. And if you spend even five minutes with him, you’ll know he lives it every day.

Bryce Andersen
CFP® ChFC® ChSNC®

Financial Advisor

Bryce Andersen has always been a guide—whether he was helping his sister access therapy as a child or supporting families as they navigate the complexities of retirement and special needs planning. His mission is clear: to help people move forward with confidence, clarity, and a sense of direction for the future.

Bryce’s passion for special needs planning is personal. Growing up with a sister who is a non-verbal quadriplegic, he understands firsthand the unique challenges families face—and how important it is to blend the retirement and aging needs of parents with the ongoing care of a loved one. He often says, “I’m a client of my own work. This isn’t just a profession. It’s my life too.”

With more than two decades of experience as a financial advisor, Bryce is known for his inquisitive, thoughtful, and humorous nature. He’s great at helping people feel comfortable in a space that can often feel overwhelming. Bryce’s goal is to ensure every client feels supported and empowered to make the best decisions for themselves and their families.

Outside of the office, Bryce is a devoted husband and dad who loves playing hockey in the “No Hit League,” cheering on his family at games and events, and finding adventure wherever he goes. His approach to life is guided by a core belief: in a world full of noise, genuine clarity and progress are rare and worth striving for.
