Growing up in the small community of Oakland, Nebraska, I’ve seen firsthand how many different small businesses and individuals it takes to keep a town thriving. Every day, I work to help people in small communities, just like the one I grew up in.

After interning at the Center during my last semester of college, I realized this was the path I wanted to go down to start my career. I love interacting with so many great individuals within the Center, and enjoy connecting with a diverse group of clients. It is so fulfilling helping an individual achieve their dream of owning their own business.

I attended college at Chaminade University in Honolulu, Hawaii, and finished up at Concordia University in Seward, Nebraska, where I got a degree in business, with a concentration in finance. While in college, I also played on the men’s basketball teams at both institutions.

My younger brothers and sister and I all grew up in Oakland, and I enjoy spending time with them and the rest of my family and friends. Anywhere outdoors is my favorite place to be, especially hiking, camping, and having fun at the lake.
