Born into a cattle-ranching family and raised in rural McDermitt, Nevada, Kelsey grew up entrenched in the ranching lifestyle, working together with his father to manage several thousand head of cattle and the infrastructure to support them.
 
A state champion athlete and equestrian competitor, Kelsey left McDermitt to pursue a degree in Finance at the University of Nevada at Las Vegas (UNLV). Upon earning his finance degree, Kelsey relocated to Sacramento, California, where he established his career in financial management in 2008.
 
With a desire to serve clients in a more personal way, Bengoa Financial Management was founded in 2015 in the beautiful Santa Ynez Valley on California's Central Coast. There, Kelsey has worked to deliver dedication and expertise to his clients, guiding them to establish then achieve their financial goals.
 
Kelsey maintains a strong sense of community and a firm commitment to continually building upon his expertise. His passion for the lifestyle in which he was raised continues as well, enriched by living in the Santa Ynez Valley with his wife, Jessie, a brand marketing executive, and their twins — daughter, Landry, and son, Brand, who are in the 6th generation to call the area home.
