About Us

At Obsidian Wealth Advisors, we help pre-retirees and recent retirees create clear, tax-smart financial plans that give confidence today and security for tomorrow. Our approach is simple: the plan always drives the portfolio — never the other way around. By anchoring financial decisions in a thoughtful plan, our clients make choices that improve their probability of success and peace of mind.

Founded by Jeff Artherholt, CFP®, and Steven Curry, CFP®, Obsidian was built on a shared vision: to provide financial guidance that aligns with your goals, values, and dreams. Together, they bring decades of experience across generations, offering clients unique perspectives and a holistic approach to financial planning.

The name “Obsidian” reflects our philosophy: like the powerful, protective stone, we aim to bring clarity, build a solid foundation, and foster growth. We encourage clients to envision their ideal outcomes and dream big — whether that’s retiring comfortably, funding a passion project, or leaving a lasting legacy.

Our commitment is to understand your interests, protect your wealth, and help you achieve financial freedom, so every stage of life — especially retirement — is not just secure, but fulfilling.
