What got you interested in this field?:
My early jobs were working as a legal secretary, a closing coordinator in a real estate office, and a sales assistant at PaineWebber, a wire house. Those positions gave me a great background for working with people and helping them manage their financial lives. I learned that I love developing meaningful, long-lasting, and impactful relationships with my clients and their families.
