About Tes Sturges

I started working when I was 13 years old to help my Mom buy groceries, I have never quit working to help. I have been working in the financial services industry my entire career helping businesses and people find ways to “fix” financial problems. I came to Thrivent because it is amazing way for me to help teach people how they too, can be in charge of their destiny with just a little help to build their financial road map from someone who’s been there and understands.

I can help you cut through the clutter to see your whole picture.

I started my life with nothing and because my Mom taught me how to budget using the “envelope” system…”necessary” and “unnecessary” I have realized my dreams. Anyone can achieve financial success regardless of where they currently find themselves. I would love to teach you how to manage where you are so you can get to where you want to be.

What I love to do when I’m not teaching….

I love to cook and have cooked for my family to 100s at fundraising events. Relaxing to me is reading and you can find me on many a summer evening lounging on the deck with a book in my hand. My family is important to me and spending quality time with my kids is heaven even if it’s just an evening of watching them type into their phones!
