Hi, I’m nene

I know what it’s like to feel financially stretched. In January 2023, I took control of my finances. By curbing my Amazon spending habit and following a simple budget, I paid off about $30,000 in student loans and credit card debt in 11 months. I also fully funded my emergency fund without compromising on doing the things I enjoy.

I’m passionate about helping women find financial freedom and build lasting wealth. Through Bread and Budget, I share practical tips, budgeting strategies, and ideas to help you take charge of your money and create a life you love—without sacrificing the things that matter most. Whether you’re looking to crush your financial goals or just need a little inspiration, I’m here to show you it’s possible!

My Approach

When it comes to managing your money, I believe in keeping it simple and sticking to what works. You don’t need to reinvent the wheel to take control of your finances. My approach focuses on proven strategies like budgeting, saving, and mindful spending—without overcomplicating the process. I encourage small, consistent steps that fit your lifestyle, because financial freedom doesn’t have to be overwhelming. With a little clarity, accountability, and a plan that works for you, you can achieve your goals without feeling like you have to overhaul your entire life.
