Rachel Drew, CEA

Founder & CEO, Cadence

Rachel Drew founded Cadence in 2020 after personally navigating her mother's estate settlement. This experience revealed how overwhelming and disjointed the administrative process after a loss is. Drawing on years as a hospice care volunteer and executor adviser, she built Cadence to bring clarity, structure, and compassionate human support to families and the professionals who serve them.

Products

• Legacy Planner - Estate preplanning platform
• Executor Assistant - Tailored and automated estate settlement support and grief care

Cadence is one of the few platforms built to serve both families and the professionals who support them. Cadence works with funeral homes, healthcare, wealth management and institutional partners to support families pre and post loss. 

Cadence provides an online platform that walks executors through settling an estate. We provide an interactive roadmap with personalized tasks and detailed instructions, as well as automated notifications with participating institutions. I have been leading the support team for four years, working directly with executors who need additional guidance outside of what the Cadence platform provides. I am also the main content manager for our knowledge database and have done extensive research on the required steps needed to settle an estate. 

We do money differently.

I want to understand what's important to our clients. I will use an established process to build personalized strategies to help our clients achieve their goals. I will partner with our clients throughout their lives to help keep them on track.

With over 12 years serving the Midland area we are best suited to assist those transitioning to or already in retirement.
