CFP®

Growing up in rural Nebraska has given me a great appreciation for what it takes to make a community thrive. Those small town values are ingrained in me and I love helping people and being involved with my community in any way I can.


I graduated from the University of South Dakota in 2006 with a degree in Dental Hygiene, I then accepted a position in the City of Yankton and have called Yankton my home every since. I love this community and I can’t imagine raising my two children in a more unique and phenomenal place.


After serving the Yankton community for 11 years as a dental hygienist I decided to take the biggest leap of faith to become a financial advisor. Many people told me going from the dental world to the financial world would be a complete 180. I however, have found that the two careers are very similar in that both fields require trust, care and a desire to help the people you serve. I am committed to caring for and helping each of my clients navigate their financial journey.  This is my true passion!
