Our Story
Mieke and Kylie first met during high school and middle school, respectively, when Mieke and Kylie's older sister became friends at Greenwich High School. With similar dispositions and thoughtful approaches, Mieke and Kylie established a lasting friendship that has endured since those early days. Both returned to Greenwich, Kylie after college and Mieke after time in New York City, making it their home with husbands and children.
After college, Kylie joined a personal financial services firm. When Mieke, after a short career break to raise her children, decided to return to work, Kylie suggested they work together at the same firm, seeing it as a perfect match for their personalities and work styles.
Having worked together since 2016, Mieke and Kylie decided it was time to start their own personal financial services firm to build on their previous successes and learnings. They are pleased to introduce Burchbury Financial - a true combination of their experience, skills and names!
