Based in Incline Village, Lake Tahoe, with service hubs all over the country, our team strives to provide success to individuals and families with very dynamic and tactical wealth care. Our name, Klaraos is a play on the word Klarit, which means "clarity" in German, while the "AOS" that finishes our name is a play on Chaos.  We quite simply want to represent Clarity through Chaos, or Klaraos.

Martina Hulten

A recent graduate from Sierra Nevada College in Incline Village, Martina brings to Klaraos a double major in Business Management and International Business. Martina grew up in Sweden, attending four years at Malung’s Alpine Ski high school in Sweden. Her experience and love for the sport encouraged her to look for colleges with ski teams in the United States. Sierra Nevada College had what she needed: a Business Program and a Ski Team. For the last five years, Martina has spent her time in beautiful Lake Tahoe and is loving everything it has to offer. Martina has banking experience from both Sweden and the US, and since joining Klaraos, she has worked with new client relations as well as trading.



With a unique system that follows the business cycle closely, Klaraos separates itself from competition by offering to our clients and investors private placement investments that offer returns that take into account the current stage of the business cycle. On a consistent basis, Klaraos is actively in search of private ventures and opportunities that fit into the overall theme of investment. These venture funds are incorporated into our client’s overall portfolio, to allow Klaraos the ability to better gauge our clients exposure, and to help benefit from the current weighting of investment strategy. Reporting to our clients allows for a regular update and for the best understanding of the intricacies that are often involved in a private placement investment.
