Hard work are two “four letter words” that are part of my DNA.  

Entering the employee benefits arena two months out of high school, I grew up in the industry and with the industry.  

My career includes carriers, a TPA, large national agencies, and independent agencies.  Each experience has brought a unique perspective that allows me to build relationships with clients and account stakeholders to ensure excellence in service delivery fostering long-term success and supporting business growth.

My early career grew by spending eight years leading and developing the sales and marketing department with a national, independent TPA where I learned self-funding strategies from the TPA’s President personally.  This knowledge base and my desire to excel allowed me to partner with brokers as the self-funded SME to win new business and gain their clients' trust and confidence.  

I learned more during those eight years than most people learn in a lifetime. It was a foundation I continue to build on.

Today, as an experienced Benefits Advisor, Account Executive, and Operations Leader, I work with employers of all sizes to build customized plans to control costs and enhance employee experience.  

I execute with strong business acumen, financial expertise, and extensive industry knowledge to partner with clients to achieve their employee benefits objectives.

Through the years, I’ve learned that individuals achieve more with collaboration, encouragement, and a common mindset for excellence.  

I am an engaged leader with a proven record of building high-performing teams through coaching and mentorship that encourages professional growth to deliver consistent client outcomes and support organizational goals.

It’s a great day for ice cream!🍨 

It’s a beautiful 70-degree day here in Big D. The perfect excuse to stop for amazing ice cream served by amazing people!

We swung by Howdy Homemade Ice Cream  and were pleasantly surprised to be greeted by an old friend, Katie!

Howdy Homemade is changing the way the world sees special needs by employing people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) and giving them meaningful roles in running the shop.  It is such a powerful reminder that great employees come in all shapes, sizes, and abilities.

My favorite scoops - Dr. Pepper Chocolate Chip and Cold Brew & Cookies!

If you’re in the area, this is your sign to treat yourself and support a place where inclusion is on the menu every day.
