As I was growing up, my family always struggled with finances. As you can imagine, this made things very difficult. Although money doesn't buy you happiness, I know it can help. This is why I'm passionate about helping individuals and families plan to secure their financial future. My mission and promise to my members is: I will do everything in my power to make sure your needs and goals are met.

worked in the hospitality industry for five years. I've always had a passion for working with people. When I was 19 years old, one of my managers asked me, "What's your job?" I replied, "Checking people in and out." She said, "No, your job is to make people happy." Still today, that is my No. 1 job.

I believe in the mission, not only for how it helps its members reach their financial goals, but also because of the servant attitude. Modern Woodmen allows me to share my success with my community, and they support my role to uplift the lives of those around me.

working with people. I firmly believe that real change can be made by making a positive impact in the lives of the people we serve. If I can help someone save for a home; if I can help someone retire; if I can help protect a family; I can feel good knowing I've helped create a better tomorrow. It's even more beautiful that the impact will go beyond our members to reach their kids and loved ones.

I look into the eyes of my members and see the relief and peace of mind overwhelm them because they now feel like their future is brighter than ever.
