My Passion

The advisory team at Secure Future Advisors helps our clients bridge the financial gap between their current situations and their desired outcomes. This process involves building relationships, having candid conversations, and implementing financial plans. I am truly passionate about the back office work that goes into drafting and implementing these plans, organizing and analyzing data, and providing client service. 

My Expertise

I graduated from Cedarville University with honors in December of 2021. I studied Economics, and took elective classes in Finance and Law. I have passed my FINRA Series 65 & Series 7 exams in order to further my understanding of the finance industry. However, much of what I will learn in the near future will come from working alongside and serving our advisory team.

My Role

As our Director of Financial Planning, my role is to assist our advisor group in all facets of the client relationships and financial planning workflow. I provide client relationship support through gathering and analyzing client data,  preparing preliminary financial plans and other client deliverables, as well as handling client service requests. In doing so, I assist in continuing to provide our clients with the best service possible. 

My Personal Interest

I was born and raised in Miamisburg, Ohio and still currently reside there. I recently graduated from Cedarville University where I majored in Economics and minored in Bible. In my spare time, I enjoy reading non-fiction books, particularly those on political science and history. I also enjoy spending time outdoors doing things like hiking or water sports. Lastly, I enjoy watching my favorite NFL team, the Cleveland Browns.
