What got you interested in this field?

My first ‘real’ job was in the financial industry—and I was hooked. I became fascinated by how the markets worked and, more importantly, how that knowledge could be used to help people navigate one of the most important areas of their lives. Much has changed in the industry since 1986, but one thing has remained constant: “my commitment to caring deeply for our clients.”

Hobbies and Relaxation

Outside of work, I enjoy slalom water skiing, relaxing around bonfires, and soaking up lake life with family and friends. Whether it’s an early morning ski run or an evening by the fire, these moments help me recharge and stay grounded.
