My name is Elicasith "Elic" You, and I’m a proud father, husband, and financial professional at Thrivent. My wife, Angela, and I have been happily married for over 18 years, and together we have three amazing children who keep our lives full of energy, especially with their passion for softball and basketball. As a Minnesota native, I’ve been a dedicated Vikings fan for most of my life, cheering them on through thick and thin.

After 18+ years in recruiting, sales, and education, I transitioned into financial advising—aligning with my lifelong passion for helping others achieve their goals. Family is at the heart of everything I do, and that commitment extends to my work with clients, ensuring they feel supported and empowered in their financial journeys. I’m proud to be a Thrivent financial professional, where we view money not as a goal, but as a tool to create a life rich in meaning and gratitude.

As a Market Director at Thrivent, I empower financial professionals to build lifelong careers by helping others. This profession is incredibly rewarding, with the opportunity to deeply impact the lives of those around you. I’m committed to developing and coaching individuals who want to make a difference in their communities, knowing that there are many people who need the guidance and support we provide.
