Why I do what I do

Why I do what I do

as a former teacher and coach, I find my purpose in building relationships with my members, educating them, and helping them achieve their financial goals.

I serve members in…

central and southern Wisconsin and the surrounding area.

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

life insurance and annuities.

I enjoy working with…

individuals and families who want clear, easy-to-understand guidance for their financial planning needs.

I attended…

UW Oshkosh and Ripon College for my undergrad where I served as class senator, and earned my masters at Marian University.

I am very proud of…

my background as a teacher and a coach. Those roles have significantly shaped how I serve my community in this career.

Before Modern Woodmen, I…

was a teacher and coach at Waupun for 2.5 years, a JV and varsity football coach, and volunteered as a middle school basketball coach. During this time, I also got my master’s in business management from Marian University. While attending college I worked for a company called Saputo that makes cheese.

I chose Modern Woodmen because…

of fraternalism and making an impact through service and our member programs. There's a major focus on community involvement here, including this year’s focus on education. We're also member-owned.

The best part of my career is…

making a meaningful difference by creating relationships with my members.

A favorite moment in my career was when…

I earned the trust of members, and we started cultivating a relationship. I also enjoy nurturing young readers through the Birthday Book Club.

My life outside of work

My family includes…

my mother, Paula; father, Mike; sister, Ashley; brother in-law, Josh; and nephew, Hudson.

In my free time, you can find me…

supporting local Fox Valley community businesses, golfing, and spending time with friends and family.

I’m passionate about…

my faith, family, golfing, boating and Wisconsin sports.

My greatest blessing is…

my faith, family and the network that supports me personally and professionally.

My personal motto is…

serve others with integrity and put their needs first.

My hidden talent is…

connecting with people from all walks of life. I have a positive attitude in any situation.

Community impact

In the community

In the community

My local community impact

I have lived in my community…

my entire life. I grew up right outside Waupun and lived in a small town called Alto. I have been in the Fox Valley area for over six years.

What I like best about my community is…

that it's home! I can go down to Main Street and people will wave and say hi. People genuinely care for one another and give back to make this community great.

I’m a member of…

River Valley's young adult youth group.

My favorite volunteer activities are…

mentoring and tutoring kids, coaching youth sports on the weekends, and anything hands-on where I can see the impact my members and I make.

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 favorite memory from a fraternal event is…

helping with an ALS Walk with my managing partner. Seeing how ALS impacted each participant moved me. Listening to their stories and how it impacted them was a privilege.

A little throwback to this summer’s Waupun football golf outing! 🏈⛳ Through the matching fund, $1,500+ was raised, along with more than $300 from the hole game, all going toward safer equipment for Waupun football. Fast forward to Homecoming — Waupun comes away with a 46–20 victory! What a great night for the community. More importantly, prayers are with the Wautoma player who was flown out by helicopter following the game. Hoping for the best for him and his family. 🙏 This is what makes Prison City so special — the people. The support, the pride, and the way this community comes together for one another. #Waupun #PrisonCity #WaupunWisconsin #WaupunFootball #WaupunWarriors #WaupunProud #WaupunCommunity #WaupunStrong #WaupunAlumni #WaupunSchools #WaupunHighSchool #WaupunArea #Wautoma #WautomaFootball #FondDuLacCounty #DodgeCounty #GreenLakeCounty #CommunityStrong #CommunitySupport #GivingBack #LocalCommunity #SupportLocal #HighSchoolFootball #FridayNightLights #FootballCommunity #ModernWoodmen #ModernWoodmenOfAmerica #AllInForEducation #MakingADifference #ProudToGiveBack

32,167 missing children’s cases were supported by the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children in 2025. Every child deserves to be safe, and every family deserves peace of mind. (NCMEC) A big thank you to Spillman Public Library for collaborating with us to provide child safety kits to families in our community. These kits are a simple but important resource that can help families be better prepared if a child ever goes missing. I’m grateful to partner with organizations like Spillman Public Library that continue to put the safety and well-being of our children first. #ModernWoodmen #ChildSafety #SafetyKits #MissingChildren #CommunitySupport #CommunitySafety #FondDuLac #FondDuLacCounty #Waupun #DodgeCounty #Wisconsin #GivingBack #StrongerTogether

It’s hard to put into words what it means to come together for something bigger than ourselves. 💙 Two weekends ago in Oshkosh, I had the opportunity to be part of an ALS event and help provide a $2,500 matching fund to support this important cause. ALS impacts so many lives, and every bit of support matters. Together, we can make a difference. #ALS #EndALS #ALSResearch #ALSawareness #Oshkosh #OshkoshWI #FondduLac #FondduLacWI #FondduLacCounty #Waupun #RiponWI #GreenLakeWI #DodgeCountyWI #Wisconsin #CommunityStrong #GivingBack #MakingADifference #ModernWoodmen #SupportLocal #CommunitySupport #TogetherWeCan #ChrisJohnson #LouGehrig
