Why I do what I do
Why I do what I do
I do what I do because I have a passion to help people in any manner, especially when it comes to helping people achieve their financial goals and dreams.
I serve members in…
Michigan, Indiana and Illinois.
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…
a variety of people. I love working with young families who are just starting their financial planning, those approaching retirement and small-business owners.
I attended…
Kellogg Community College and Aquinas College.
I am very proud of…
the fact that every day I get to sit down and help people protect their families or businesses with life insurance, and that I can help them plan for retirement.
Before Modern Woodmen, I…
graduated college with a teaching degree and was unable to find a teaching job. I was fortunate enough to have been given a job opportunity on a large crop farm, where I worked until I started my financial services practice with Modern Woodmen.
I chose Modern Woodmen because…
of our fraternalism. When I was about 12 or so, my now-regional-director, Rob Keorkunian, and his wife, Nicole, showed up at my mom's house with hats, coats and gloves for my sisters and I. That one simple act of kindness always stuck with me. When I had the opportunity to become a representative with Modern Woodmen, I knew this is an organization I wanted to be a part of.
The best part of my career is…
the relationships. I have the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with people every day.
A favorite moment in my career was when…
I delivered my first death claim. Once you have delivered a death claim to a family, you instantly gain an understanding of the power of life insurance and what it really does for families. That money that you bring to the family can't bring their loved one back, but it can pay a mortgage off, replace income, put the kids through college and create a legacy for the loved one who is no longer here.
