Seattle, WA — Gateway Financial Partners is pleased to announce that Irene Lee-Sluys, CFP®, MPAS™, has joined the firm as its newest Certified Financial Planner professional. With more than 25 years of experience helping individuals and families make informed financial decisions, Irene brings both deep expertise and an empathetic approach to comprehensive financial planning.
Irene began her career in banking in 1991, quickly progressing from personal banker to supervisor and eventually to financial advisor. In 2013, she earned the Certified Financial Planner (CFP®) designation, followed by a Master of Science in Personal Financial Planning (MPAS™) in 2019. Her professional path reflects a long-standing dedication to financial education and client-centered guidance.
Beyond her professional achievements, Irene’s personal journey has profoundly influenced her approach to planning. After the unexpected loss of her husband in 2018, she navigated firsthand the financial and emotional challenges that can accompany life’s transitions. This experience strengthened her commitment to helping others through their own periods of change — offering both the structure of sound financial planning and the understanding that comes from lived experience.
At Gateway Financial Partners, Irene integrates her holistic, wellness-focused philosophy into every client relationship. Her practice centers on helping clients align their financial strategies with their values, families, and long-term vision — ensuring each plan reflects the full scope of their lives.
With Irene’s addition, Gateway Financial Partners continues to expand its community of advisors dedicated to empowering clients through education, partnership, and thoughtful financial planning.
