Dace DeKruif is a Bloomfield Hills, MI fee-only Stewardship Advicer. Dace begins every client engagement by helping the client define and create their own Personal Statement of Financial Purpose (PSFP). The PSFP becomes the foundation for all other decsions going forward as it enables us to define the clients' priorities and also begins to help clients answer the question of how much is enough. There are a variety of tools and resources that are used in this process including holistic financial planning, investment management, estate planning and so much more. The ultimate goal of the work that is done is to enable Dace to become a guide and thinking partner who is helping Christians live Biblically generous lives for the love of God, the love of others, and their joy. Along the way, the process is designed to help clients understand, organize, grow and protect their assets through life’s transitions. As a fee-only, fiduciary, and independent financial advisor, Dace DeKruif is never paid a commission of any kind, and has a legal obligation to provide unbiased and trustworthy financial advice.

Get to Know Dace DeKruif
Dace DeKruif is a Fee-Only financial advisor located in Detroit, MI, serving clients throughout southeast Michigan and across the country.
My goal is to love Jesus, love others, and live an abundant life. This is the same desire that I have for my clients. Over the last 20 years, I have found that by helping people have a better understanding of their financial lives I can help enable them to live this out. While I love helping people, it is secondary to the time I get to spend with my incredible wife Jennifer, our amazing daughter, and our golden doodle.
What I have come to understand is that an abundant life is not about numbers on bank statements but the moments in life - large and small. We embrace all that life has to offer: the craziness of everyday life, working in our garden, camping in the UP, summer days at the cottage, finding sunshine in the winter in Florida, and so much more. We also spend a lot of time watching our daughter swim, play volleyball, and play soccer. In the last several years, I have found a new adventure to experience some of God’s amazing world by taking up endurance challenges. I have had the opportunity to complete the Grand Canyon rim to rim to rim (R2R2R) and to run the full Lakeshore Trail at Pictured Rocks.
I have almost 20 years of experience providing clients with the advice they need to live an abundant life. This includes creating financial plans, managing investments, and helping people begin and stay on the path towards living an abundant life.
