As an industry professional, I am driven by the desire to bring clarity to the uncertainties of our future and help individuals navigate the multitude of options available to them. My passion for assisting people stems from my personal experiences of having to figure things out on my own and the overwhelming confusion that can hinder progress. Overcoming those challenges has fueled my motivation to guide others through their own obstacles with ease.
Choosing to partner with Commonwealth Financial Group was a natural decision for me. After engaging with numerous individuals in the industry, it became evident that CFG's mission to educate and work collaboratively with clients aligns perfectly with my own values. Rather than focusing on a singular aspect, CFG takes a holistic approach, examining all potential options from a comprehensive 35,000-foot view to determine the best course of action for each person's unique circumstances.
My background in real estate, where I spent five years immersed in the home buying and selling process, has provided me with valuable insights into the mindset of individuals involved in such transactions. Recognizing the mental toll it can take, I strive to offer guidance and coordination, understanding that it is often the largest asset someone typically acquires.
Beyond my professional endeavors, I actively engage with my community. I serve on the board of my condo association and am a proud member of the Chittenden County Historic Society. Volunteering for various events, including fundraisers for the Community Health Centers of Burlington, allows me to contribute to causes that positively impact the lives of others. Additionally, I participate in a Corporate Ski Race League at Bolton Valley, fostering teamwork and camaraderie.
Outside of work, you'll find me indulging in my personal interests. I enjoy regular biking sessions, the exhilaration of telemark skiing, and the challenge of solving jigsaw puzzles. As a travel enthusiast, I have spent five years living out of a suitcase during my time in the software industry. A hidden gem I'd recommend is bringing a sandwich to the parking garage roof of BTV for lunch with a stunning view.
