What are your specific goals for Tri-Star Trust clients?
I feel like I have done my job as a financial planner if my clients understand their current financial situation, have peace of mind knowing they are on track to accomplishing their goals, accept that it is within their power to improve their future, and know that I will be right beside them every step of the way.
What’s the best piece of professional advice you’ve ever received?
As lackluster as this may be, the best piece of advice I’ve ever been given, be it in a personal or professional setting, is to ‘just be yourself’. People do not want to be impressed with who you pretend to be, they want to be trusted with who you really are.
What do you enjoy doing in your personal time?
I enjoy spending my personal time with my family and friends. It doesn’t matter what I’m actually doing. I could be scaling fish or scraping wallpaper.
What’s your favorite quote?
“The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.” – Pablo Picasso
