As an Edward Jones financial advisor, my belief is that every person should understand their investments and why they have them. Too many times, people are in the dark on their investments and why they own them, as well as the cost involved and performance. Simply getting to know my clients and understanding what is important to them is all that's needed to build a strategy to help reach their goals. My clients have a lifelong partner with me. I'm here to help them define and achieve their dreams: retirement, education and estate considerations.

I graduated from Huntington College with a bachelor's degree in business. I have been in the financial industry for over 30 years, the last 11 years with Edward Jones in Nappanee, IN. I am also on the board of directors for the Nappanee Rotary Club.

My husband, J.D., and I have been married for 32 years. We have two beautiful daughters, Brette and Addison.

My branch office administrator is Laurie Schmucker. She has lived in Nappanee her entire life and has worked at Edward Jones for 23 years. She is a joy to work with and loves helping our clients.
