After graduating from college, I worked in the banking industry. I then moved to the personal financial service industry. During my tenure, I hired and trained hundreds of advisors. I have taken on senior leadership roles with numerous, large insurance companies.
My focus is to help people to understand their current situation, and to provide them with options. I inform and educate them with the various options that are available, taking into consideration their unique circumstances.

I find that my greatest satisfaction is helping people put their financial affairs in order. My career started as a bank teller and within two years moved into Management. My philosophy of financial service was consistent no matter the role: get to know our clients first, and then create personalized recommendations based on what is important to them. Caring for and educating clients in this manner resulted in being nominated one of Cloverdale's top 3 Financial Advisors in 2018.
