True North Wealth Management is a Palmer, Alaska financial advisor firm built around a simple idea: your investments and your taxes should work together. We serve Alaskans statewide with goal-based wealth management and integrated tax planning, so every step of your financial journey points in the right direction.
Mark Diehl isn’t just your financial advisor — he’s also a CPA. That combination means your investment strategy and your tax plan are always developed together, by the same person, with the full picture always in view.
For most Alaskans approaching retirement, that kind of integrated guidance is hard to find. Your financial advisor manages your money. Your accountant handles your taxes. The two rarely talk. At True North, there’s no gap to fall through — just one trusted advisor who understands exactly how every financial decision affects the other.

As a CPA, Mark doesn’t just file your taxes — he plans around them. From tax-loss harvesting to retirement account strategy, your tax picture is part of every financial conversation.
Whether retirement is five years out or twenty, now is when the decisions matter most. We help you determine when you can retire, what it will take, and how to protect what you’ve built.
Steady, thoughtful investment strategy focused on making your money last — not chasing the next big thing. We manage your portfolio with your timeline and tax efficiency always in mind.
Before we can map a route, we need to understand your starting point. We take the time to learn where you are financially, what you've built, what you owe, and what you're working toward — so that every recommendation we make is grounded in your real life.
Once we understand your goals, we build a complete picture of your financial life so you can see exactly what it will take to get where you want to go. Retirement in five years. A home for your family. A legacy for your kids. We map the route to make it real.
Life changes. Markets shift. Tax laws evolve. True North isn't a one-time plan — it's an ongoing relationship built to keep your financial journey on track no matter what the terrain looks like. We check in regularly, adjust when needed, and make sure every step you take is still pointing toward your True North.
