I am a financial professional with a passion for creating strong personal and professional connections with my clients by guiding and supporting them through financial pitfalls, unexpected life events, and helping them to achieve their financial goals and dreams. Through this partnership, we regularly examine their financial picture through every stage of life in a holistic way in order to empower them to live life to its fullest and pursue their goals with confidence and peace of mind. I began my career in music as a classical singer and pianist with studies at the Peabody Preparatory, Oberlin Conservatory, and New England Conservatory of Music. I went on to perform in the United States and Europe for many years while working in retail management and administrative support in executive search and investment banking. Following my continuing education studies at the University of Massachusetts Amherst in business with a concentration in finance, I discovered my niche as a relationship-driven financial professional for affluent individuals, families, and businesses. My personal and professional experiences have given me a broad view of the world. I have had the great fortune to experience many different cultures and socioeconomic backgrounds and openly celebrate diversity and inclusion in my personal and professional life. I am a proud member of the LGBTQIA+ community which I support through events, sponsorship, and activism and still continue to support my passion for the performing arts.
