Interests

I'm very interested in getting to know each client personally and to hear what's important to them. I spend most of my free time with family and friends especially my children and grandchildren who live nearby. I enjoy the outdoors and like to golf, go camping, hiking and bike riding. With the world rapidly changing, I consider myself a lifetime student of business and finance. I also enjoy attending local fairs, festivals, and live theater performances. God is the focal point in my life and I study his word daily.
