I am so blessed to be able to make a living by helping others as well as their communities. Each day, I sit down and help people overcome financial concerns and obstacles. I also get to help my community with our fraternal programs and activities. It’s very rewarding to be able to do what I do.

Tennessee, including my hometown in Huntingdon, Tennessee.

life insurance, annuities, mutual funds and variable annuities.

and helping each individual plan to reach their goals, and providing life insurance that will protect families.

being a member of Modern Woodmen's President's Club and earning Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT) through the years.

grew up farming and worked in sales and manufacturing.

I believe in the organization -- not only for how it supports members to help them reach their financial goals, but also for how it supports my community and allows me to give back.

helping my members and bringing in new members by planning for their retirement, protecting their families with life insurance and making a positive impact on their lives.

I realized just how important life insurance is. I lost both of my parents two months apart, and they had no life insurance due to uninsurability. Another moment that stuck with me involved a young member who had term-to-age-21 life insurance. Before it expired, I tried to get him to convert it to whole life insurance ... but he didn't. He had a car wreck at age 22 and passed. That broke my heart, because he had no insurance.

I enjoy giving back to the community and individuals through Modern Woodmen's fraternal programs.
