The best part of my career is…
supporting our members. Whether in guiding them in their journey to retirement or protecting their loved ones with life insurance, I find satisfaction in knowing I help bring peace of mind to them and their families.
A favorite moment in my career was when…
I was working with a couple who felt like they were up against the wall with their finances. They needed to take steps to protect their family and steps to build for their retirement, but their finances felt squeezed. There was a moment in that meeting where I dropped my pen and realized I needed to ask a few tough questions. As I did, the confusion and the difficulty they were experiencing cleared out of the room, and we could all see a path forward.

... I live by a principle with my clients which can best be described like this: if your finances are a ship, your place is at the helm, steering. My role is in the crow's nest. I will tell you what I see, whether we are on course, or if there is a hazard ahead. However, I will always defer to you and what you know to be the right decision for you and your family.
