About me
The biggest reason that I became a Financial Advisor is because I'm committed to helping you get closer to your dreams. It is my responsibility to share my knowledge in a conversation that you can expect to be judgment-free, pressure-free and meaningful to you and your goals. Having a family of my own, I understand the importance of creating and implementing a plan that will take care of you and your loved ones.
Some fun facts about me: I love classic rock with Journey being my favorite band. I also enjoy a good true crime documentary and enjoy trying new food places!
Lending a hand in my community.
As part of Northwestern Mutual, I'm proud to help impact my community in a positive way. Early in my career I was an intern for a Non profit organization. This experience allowed me to understand the importance of providing helpful and impactful services to my community. I have partnered with organizations such as El Centro De Ayuda and Innercity Struggle to share the importance of having a financial plan.
Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer (ALSF)
ALSF funds cancer research, raises awareness, and supports the families of children with cancer. Since 2012, Northwestern Mutual, its employees, and financial professionals like me have donated more than $20 million to support ALSF and fund over 400,000 research hours.
Beads of Courage
Beads of Courage is an art-in-medicine program that helps kids with cancer tell their unique treatment story through colorful beads that are symbols of their courage.
How Northwestern Mutual helps you live the life you want.
When people feel better about their money, good things happen—they become more confident and feel more secure. For more than 160 years, Northwestern Mutual has helped people achieve the financial flexibility they need to live more and worry less.
Being a mutual company means Northwestern Mutual reports to its clients, not Wall Street. They don't believe in chasing fads or taking undue risk for short-term gains. Instead, they take a long-term approach—both in the way we help people plan to reach their goals, and in the way they do business. This has served their clients (and mine) well through all kinds of economic ups and downs, including wars, recessions, even the recent pandemic.
It's why I'm happy to be part of a company that's in it for the long-haul and prioritizes clients over profit.
