Elevating the Financial Trajectory for Emerging Affluent Professionals
About Me
Born and raised a Colorado native, I hold a dual B.S. degree in Biomedical & Mechanical Engineering from CSU. After graduating and spending time working in the medical device space, I pivoted to a career building a financial planning practice. I focus on comprehensive holistic planning tailored to each individual and family I meet.
I live in Denver with my husband Jeff who serves on the Denver Police Narcotics Team. Jeff and I spend our free time snowboarding, mountain biking, running, camping, and hanging out with our pups Goose and Rooster. I also love being involved in my community as a group fitness coach, wine drinker, and book club enthusiast.

Lending a Hand in my Community.
Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer (ALSF)
ALSF funds cancer research, raises awareness, and supports the families of children with cancer. Since 2012, Northwestern Mutual, its employees, and financial professionals like me have donated more than $20 million to support ALSF and fund over 400,000 research hours.

Beads of Courage
Beads of Courage is an art-in-medicine program that helps kids with cancer tell their unique treatment story through colorful beads that are symbols of their courage.

Reach Out Volunteer
I spent two weeks in a rural Peruvian village building greenhouses for local families with individuals from all over the world. This trip helped me improve my cultural intelligence and communication skills while building lifelong relationships with people from all different walks of life.

Social Change Volunteer
I worked with local community members to dig acequias in Chimayo, New Mexico to help their community.

How Northwestern Mutual helps you live the life you want.
When people feel better about their money, good things happen—they become more confident and feel more secure. For more than 160 years, Northwestern Mutual has helped people achieve the financial flexibility they need to live more and worry less.
Being a mutual company means Northwestern Mutual reports to its clients, not Wall Street. They don't believe in chasing fads or taking undue risk for short-term gains. Instead, they take a long-term approach—both in the way we help people plan to reach their goals, and in the way they do business. This has served their clients (and mine) well through all kinds of economic ups and downs, including wars, recessions, even the recent pandemic.
It's why I'm happy to be part of a company that's in it for the long-haul and prioritizes clients over profit.
