Alicea Konieczka

Alicea Konieczka serves as the Owner and Managing Partner of Emerald Legacy Advisors. She earned her bachelor's degree from Rockhurst University and possesses a diverse background in financial services and accounting. Alicea maintains a deep passion for helping younger generations understand and appreciate the mechanics of investing.

As your Financial Advisor, Alicea focuses on understanding the specific purpose behind your wealth to help you build lasting financial confidence. While many people ask how much money they need to retire—especially in the face of current inflation—Alicea believes investment planning must go beyond the abstract accumulation of assets.

Identifying a target retirement number is a useful starting point, but that figure requires a concrete strategy to become a reality. Alicea recognizes that this process is unique to every individual. She helps you pursue your goals through a combination of approaches, including long-term investments, the design of retirement income schedules, and the protection of your legacy through insurance-based solutions.

Because life rarely follows a predictable path, Alicea partners with you to create an individualized approach that accounts for the unexpected. She prioritizes making necessary adjustments to your strategy throughout the various stages of life.

Outside of the office, Alicea and her husband, Gustavo, live in Kansas City with their two dogs, Archie and Apollo. She spends as much time outdoors as possible, whether she is at the dog park, tending to her garden, or enjoying a lake or river. Alicea also loves to travel, with Ireland and Brazil—her husband’s birthplace—holding special places in her heart.
