ABOUT Martha Harris Myron

I'm a former qualified international financial planning professional, investment advisor, a retired United States licensed CPA-Certified Public Accountant-NH1929, CFP® Certified Financial Planner, TEP Trust & Estate Practitioner (UK/Bermuda), holding a BSc in Accountancy, and a Master of Science in Law in International Taxation and Financial Services.

FINANCIAL LITERACY MISSION
My full-time focus now is devoted to financial literacy for Bermuda (and internationally) as author, financial journalist (25 years) for the Royal Gazette, Bermuda's national newspaper and various other publications, e.g. Google News (yes, much to my surprise- numerous articles) as well as presenter, blogger, podcaster, and YouTube Channel Creator

I am endlessly fascinated with the world of finance.

Thus, financial literacy is my mission and commitment to my beloved island and all Bermuda islanders who reside within and without - we are after all relentless world travelers - needing unbiased financial information and resources in order to make the best financial decisions possible for themselves and their families.

I write extensively for Bermuda islanders and their multi-national connections, illuminating all things financial relative to Bermuda, utilising my long-tailed professional background (as both a native Bermudian and a United States qualified finance professional) while pondstraddling both jurisdictions.  My primary focus is on individuals and their families in international & domestic investments, insurance, retirement, taxation, legacy, money management/digital currency, cross border financial planning, and related economic focus areas.


BACKGROUND
As a native Bermuda-born national, I'm also a multinational - pondstraddler- citizen of Bermuda, United States, and the United Kingdom. My working career encompassed varied fields: medical technology, garment/fabric design, real estate & construction development, accountancy, and in the tax, finance, and investment industries, both in the United States and internationally in Bermuda, my island home.

Raised on our remote island of Bermuda at a time of tourist filled activity, and parochial economics, all filtered with quiet, picturesque, elegant, and sun-filled sea-sparkling charm, my indigenous Bermuda background and personal experiences as a perennial pondstraddler between Bermuda, UK, and the United States have given me a unique perspective on the challenging financial environment for local and international residents and their families living, working in Bermuda and connected across the Great Atlantic Pond between the border points: United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Caribbean, and Bermuda, the premier international financial jurisdiction.

All proceeds from any presentations, publications, webinars, podcasts, etc. are donated to Bermuda registered charities
