June marks my 22nd year in the financial services industry. When I embarked on this journey, my goal was to leverage my talents, education, and experience to give back to this great country that has given so much to my family and me. Every day, our team strives to be a blessing to our current and future clients, as well as to anyone important to them.

This career milestone coincides with a significant personal milestone that has become the foundation of my life. Twenty-two years ago, I moved to my new hometown, Jacksonville and the Beaches community. This move marked the beginning of the most rewarding chapter of my life, which continues to unfold. All my major life milestones have occurred here in Jacksonville, and I am proud to call this area home.
