Profile Description

As an Ameriprise financial advisor, I focus on building relationships across generations by delivering personalized, goal-based advice. My experience working with families has strengthened my ability to navigate complex situations with insight and precision. These experiences have sharpened my problem-solving skills and reinforced the importance of adaptability and trust. I take pride in creating tailored strategies that help families achieve their financial goals with more clarity and confidence.

Community participation

I am the Treasurer of the Austin Area Heritage Cuncil.   Community involvement is important to me. The Austin Area Heritage Council is dedicated in providing diverse community family events that educate, inspire, and celebrate cultural diversity within the Austin Metro Area.

Interests

Artist. Music Lover. Foodie. Explorer.

Austin is my creative playground! I’ve played the flute since age 9, paint in bold oils, and chase flavors from around the globe. When I’m not making art or savoring bites, you’ll find me with my Havanese, Javier, or cruising on my pink Pashley bike. Life’s too colorful to live in black and white!
