Katrina joined Thrivent as a financial advisor in 2004. Although she earned a degree in elementary education at Concordia University Ann Arbor, Katrina discovered her true calling in financial services—where she could still teach, guide, and encourage others, but in a way that directly impacts their financial well-being. She now channels her love for education into her advisory practice, offering clients a thoughtful and empowering approach to financial planning. Her work is rooted in collaboration, trust, and a genuine commitment to building meaningful relationships.

Katrina specializes in creating personalized financial strategies that align with her clients’ values and goals. Whether planning for retirement, managing life transitions, or building a legacy, she strives for clear communication, compassionate guidance, and unwavering dedication to helping others thrive. She holds the Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC) professional designation and is an Investment Advisor Representative, with her FINRA Series 7 and 66 securities licenses.

Outside of her professional role, Katrina is committed to her family and community. She and her husband Daren, married since 2006, are proud parents to their daughter Audrey and son Carter. Katrina is an active member of St. Lorenz Lutheran Church in Frankenmuth, where she enjoys serving in various volunteer roles that reflect her heart for service and connection. In her free time, Katrina finds joy in cooking, gardening, going for walks, and spending quality time with family and friends.
