About Me

I grew up in Bloomington, Minnesota, where I embraced the snowy winters and found joy in skiing, volleyball, and staying active at the gym. Seeking new experiences and a change of environment, I moved to Arizona to attend Arizona State University, where I studied financial planning.

From a young age, my mom instilled in me the importance of independence and financial responsibility. She taught me that life can bring unexpected challenges, and being prepared makes all the difference. Her guidance inspired my passion for helping others achieve financial security and clarity.

During college, I worked three jobs at once—logging 75 hours a week—because I’ve always believed in hard work, perseverance, and setting ambitious goals. Education and continuous learning have been central to my journey, and I strive to bring that same dedication to the clients I serve.

When Thrivent connected with me, I knew it was the perfect opportunity to build my own business while aligning with values that matter deeply to me. Thrivent’s commitment to generosity and community resonates with my belief that money should be more than just numbers—it should be a tool to achieve meaningful goals and create lasting impact.

Today, I’m proud to help individuals, families, and small businesses gain financial clarity, security, and confidence, while also giving back to the community that supports us all.

Hobbies & Interests

Outside of Thrivent, I love spending time outdoors—whether it’s hiking, golfing, or discovering unique finds while thrifting. You can almost always find me in the gym, where I’m currently training for an upcoming bodybuilding competition that I’m excited to take on. I’m highly ambitious and thrive on a productive lifestyle, often starting my mornings at 4 a.m. to set the tone for the day.

Travel and exploring new places are passions of mine, and I’m always looking for the next adventure. As a huge NBA fan, I never miss a chance to cheer on the Minnesota Timberwolves. Back home in Minnesota, I enjoy heading up to the lake with family and friends—fishing, skiing, swimming, and canoeing are some of my favorite ways to relax and recharge.
