I’ve been a Financial Advisor with Thrivent for several years and I enjoy what I do. I am licensed in Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, North & South Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Washington, so I can provide you and others with financial guidance in many areas, I work for Thrivent because it’s a not-for-profit Fortune 500 financial services organization that’s been in business for more than 100 years. Through Thrivent, I can offer Christian financial guidance with a broad portfolio of products and services including planning, investments, mutual funds, managed accounts, life insurance, disability income insurance, long-term care insurance, and much more. Current technology allows me to share many opportunities on "your journey to be wise with money and live generously."
