About Gretchen Franti
About Gretchen Franti

I grew up in a household where planning for your future was important. When I was 16, my parents introduced me to Thrivent and purchased my very first life insurance policy to protect me as I embarked on my first steps into adulthood. After growing up in Rochester, NY and graduating from the University of Dayton in OH, I have now lived in Virginia for over 20 years. My husband and I met at our church in Alexandria and have been married for 21 years. I worked as a photographer in the DC metro area for 10 years and then moved to the country to start a family. My three boys are all in school now, and I’m excited to have a fulfilling career with the company that I have been a member of since I was a teenager. I enjoy meeting new people as well as connecting deeper with the people I already know. I enjoy volunteering at the school, the local gym and my church. I stay busy running my three boys to and from sporting activities, and together we like to go camping and hiking.

Many people are surprised to learn that Medicare and Medicaid don’t provide the extended care coverage they expect. That’s why having a long-term care strategy can be an essential part of your financial plan. Not only does it help protect your savings—it can also preserve your choices. Thrivent is not connected with or endorsed by the U.S. government or the federal Medicare program.
