As 2024 comes to a close, it’s been great to reflect on a great year serving fantastic individuals. The year flew by, and I spent a lot of time learning and growing as I tackled my first full year in the financial advisory industry. Here are some highlights: 1. Introduced the most households to Thrivent in my advisor group of more than 250 advisors in 2024. 2. Hosted 3 financial education workshops for local churches on a variety of topics including financial foundations and legacy, church, and charity. 3. Spoke at my alma mater Ball State University’s Investment Club about my career and steps I took in college to get me to where I am today. 4. Sponsored my college fraternity’s philanthropy event focused on providing Christmas’s to families in need and hosted a LinkedIn workshop speaking about tips to best utilize the site to their benefit. 5. Took 14 different groups of over 60 people to Topgolf, where I shared about what I do and how I might be able to help them out. 6. Sponsored and participated in a Golf Outing for one of my mom’s late coworkers. 7. Was inducted as a member of the Muncie Sunrise Rotary Club. To my clients, your confidence in me, goals, and dreams inspire everything I do to support the success of your financial journey. To the Muncie community, your partnership fuels my effort to make a positive impact. Special thanks to everyone who supported me in 2024, here’s to growth and an amazing journey ahead in 2025!
