About Me

I’m originally from Plainfield, Connecticut, where I spent the first 12 years of my life before moving to Arizona. Growing up, I was always playing some kind of sport, whether it was baseball, football, or just whiffle ball in the backyard with friends. Sports taught me early on what it means to be part of a team and how to step up as a leader.

I went to Sandra Day O’Connor High School here in Arizona and kept playing baseball throughout those years. As my playing days started to wind down after high school, I began to focus more on my future career. That path led me to Arizona State University, where I earned my degree in Sports Business.

While I’ll always have a passion for sports, my time at ASU opened my eyes to the world of business and finance. I discovered how much I enjoy helping others build confidence in their financial decisions and plan for what’s ahead. That’s what drives me today, helping others feel confident and informed in their financial decisions, so they have peace of mind and freedom to focus on the things they love most.

Hobbies and Interests

Outside of Thrivent, I enjoy spending time with my friends and family. I love being outdoors, and I am always trying to shave a few strokes off my golf game. The summer heat in Arizona can be unbearable so I am always up for a quick trip to Flagstaff or Sedona to do some hiking and enjoy the cooler weather. My family and I also have a tradition of game nights, and things can get a little competitive, but it’s always a great time. Whether it’s board games, cards, or trivia, there’s plenty of laughter (and a few bragging rights) to go around.
