We would like you to meet our newest team member: Emma!
Emma was raised in Detroit Lakes, MN, where most of her family currently lives. Although most of her family is in the Detroit Lakes area, she has some family in Bismarck and Canada. She grew up on a small farm neighboring her grandparent’s farm. They raised all sorts of livestock such as cows, chickens, horses, pigs, and even pheasants.
Emma participated in many activities in high school, but hockey was the sport that continued to college. Her love for hockey stemmed through her dad, who was a goalie. Although she didn’t go for the “goalie” route, she played hockey for 11 years. Emma started college at the University of Minnesota - Duluth majoring in Financial Planning for her first 2 years. At UMD, she played ACHA D2 Women’s Hockey, which was a blast! She moved out to Bismarck in May of 2024 and has transferred to the University of Mary to major in Financial Services and Banking.
Emma's future goal is to pursue a career in finance. Emma said: "I am blessed with the opportunity to work with Debbie and the team to learn more about the finance field. I look forward to meeting everyone, learning, and growing at Thrivent!"
