Why I do what I do
Why I do what I do
I’m so blessed to make a living by helping others and their communities. Each day, I sit down and help people overcome financial concerns and obstacles. I also get to help my community with our fraternal programs and activities. It’s very rewarding to do what I do.
I can help you plan for life using a variety of tools, including…
life insurance, annuities, stocks, bonds, ETFs, mutual funds and variable annuities.
I enjoy working with…
self-employed workers, small-business owners and people who want to start planning for retirement.
I chose Modern Woodmen because…
I was impressed by the organization’s professionalism and ability to help people reach their financial goals in so many ways. I really felt that if I committed to this career, Modern Woodmen would help me make the most beneficial impact to my family, friends and community.
The best part of my career is…
meeting people in my community face-to-face and helping them where they need it most. When I leave a meeting, I feel great knowing I've helped them so much. I'll be their financial representative, giving the best service I can.
A favorite moment in my career was when…
I helped a family of five in my hometown. The parents were in their late 40s and hadn't started saving for their retirement yet. They didn't understand the first steps to take. (A common story.) After meeting, I walked the husband through his 401(k) plan so he could collect his employer’s match. We also started a nonworking spouse IRA for his wife. When they said they felt a huge weight was lifted from their shoulders, I knew this was the career for me!
