Super thankful for the opportunity to go to the Modern Woodmen Conference in Punta Cana last week! It was an unbelievable way to celebrate a successful 2024 (#37 in the Executive's Club) alongside other Modern Woodmen reps from across the country. It provided a great time to reflect and learn from other industry leaders to better serve my clients in 2025 and beyond! JOKE ALERT: After a tumultuous couple months with the stock market, I just want to point out that the S&P 500 was up every day I was in the Dominican Republic, up 7.12%. I am happy to go back to conduct some additional market research on this trend!! https://www.google.com/finance/quote/.INX:INDEXSP?sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiwpoH67P2MAxV7jYkEHVqIAY4Q3ecFegQIPBAf Securities and advisory services offered through MWA Financial Services, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Modern Woodmen of America.
