Why I do what I do

Why I do what I do

I firmly believe that financial wellness is a cornerstone to overall wellness. As a financial representative, I focus on helping individuals, families, and small-businesses plan for their future through goal-based planning so that they can achieve a version of financial freedom that is unique to their values. I listen, consult, and direct.

I serve members in…

the Inland Empire of California. The communities I'm most involved with include Yucaipa, Calimesa, Beaumont and Banning.

I can help you plan for life using a variety of tools, including…

life insurance, annuities, mutual funds and variable annuities.

I enjoy working with…

everyone! However, I primarily work with small-businesses and their employees, as well as self-employed individuals.

I attended…

community college at San Bernardino Valley College, where I got my associate degree. I finished my education at the University of California-Riverside where I got my bachelor's degree in political science and graduated on the dean's list with honors, as well as undergraduate research experience.

Before Modern Woodmen, I…

was a college student and worked as a waitress for three and a half years at a local, family-owned café in Yucaipa.

I chose Modern Woodmen because…

of the culture here and the fraternal aspect to the organization. I majored in political science because I wanted to create change. My motivation to create change has stayed the same and, with Modern Woodmen, I have been able to do so even in such a short amount of time.

The best part of my career is…

getting to provide financial education to those I sit down with, as well as helping small businesses provide valuable financial resources to themselves and their employees.

My life outside of work

My family includes…

my mom, Valerie, my dad, Roy, my two sisters, Melanie and Michelle, and my dog, Pongo.

In my free time, you can find me…

with my family, whether it's watching TV, camping, hiking or riding our horses. Anything that my family is doing, I'm doing. I also enjoy playing basketball and reading.

I’m passionate about…

my family, friends and communities.

My personal motto is…

"Your potential is endless."

My local community impact

I have lived in my community…

my entire life. I am greatly invested in my hometown, as well as the surrounding communities.

What I like best about my community is…

its close-knit, hometown feel. I've been extremely encouraged as of lately seeing the surrounding communities coming together and collaborating on community events and mixers.

I’m a member of…

all of the surrounding Chambers of Commerce. I hold leadership positions among a few of the Chambers that I serve: Board Member with the Yucaipa Chamber, Board Member with the Calimesa Chamber, and Lead Local Business Ambassador with the Banning Chamber. I am also a member of the Beaumont Chamber of Commerce.

It’s very important to me to support my community. My favorite Modern Woodmen programs are:

Matching Fund projects to raise money for those in need.

My second annual Legacy Letter event was absolutely amazing! My mom, Valerie, was a huge believer in thank you cards. Throughout my childhood and adulthood, my mom left me so many random thank you cards, sticky notes, and written words of encouragement. Thankfully, I had the hindsight to save every one of her notes that she left me. On July 13th, 2022, she passed away from Ovarian Cancer. I regularly refer to her notes when I need her, whether it’s for encouragement, a reminder, or to connect to her. I was inspired to encourage others to do the same thing for the loved ones in their lives. Life is so short! Don't forget to love on those in your life while you can. Thank you to everyone who made this possible!
