Summary

What used to be my passion statement of, “I love to give financial education to all those around me”, has now become, “I truly love to watch others succeed”. That carries over in every aspect of my life not just professionally. Whether I’m helping a friend learn how to fly fish, helping people learn new workout exercises, or helping mentor new colleagues. My spirit is that of a leader and when I see someone is eager to grow in an area that I can positively impact, I make their goals my own. With endless career paths and opportunities, I have taken a particular interest in financial planning. With proper financial planning, you can achieve financial security, and with financial security, you can achieve doing what you want, when you want, and with whom you want. To me, that’s what life is all about. I’m dedicated to growing my financial knowledge and leadership skillset, not only for my personal fulfillment but for those all around me.
