Thrivent Social Media Privacy Policy, Guidelines, Disclosures & Disclaimers
Thrivent Social Media Privacy Policy, Guidelines, Disclosures & DisclaimersThrowback to my launch party in February 2023 — 4 months after I officially stepped into the world of financial advising! 🎉 I remember being equal parts excited and nervous. What I love most is that most of the people in this photo are the same awesome Thrivent partners I still work with today. Their support (and their willingness to pour into me) helped shape me into the advisor I am now. 😊 Three+ years later, I’m even more grateful for the families I get to serve — especially those here in the Richmond/Midlothian community. If you’ve been thinking about retirement, legacy planning, or simply getting more confidence around your money, I’m always happy to connect. 🤝 See thrivent.com/social for important disclosures.

Merry Christmas (almost!). Yes, that’s a bear. A real one. Gatlinburg was full of 🐻 sightings! I was just on that same staircase 5 minutes earlier! I gotta wonder- how did this bear know how to fish? How to hunt? How to climb trees? Oh yeah…someone taught her. So, how do you know how much life insurance you need? How much should be pre-tax vs Roth? How much you need for retirement? Oh yeah…someone should TEACH you!!! January appointments now available. Let’s connect!

The road, or bridge, to retirement can be long and scary. You may wobble or shake from time to time. But keep going. Keep putting one foot in front of the next. It’s worth it to plan. It’s worth it to reach that goal! 🌉
