What is your personal philosophy? Onward and upward! In both professional and personal life, I believe in the art of letting go and quickly moving on from unpleasant experiences or failures. I pride myself on embracing change and manifesting future desired outcomes.
When you are not at the office, you can often be found doing what? Spending time with my growing family, playing pickleball, or cooking!
The best part of working for Acorn is: hearing our clients’ life stories and travel adventures. We work with so many incredible, accomplished people. They have built their own empires, explored the world, and nurtured amazing families. They inspire me daily.
One day, I would really like to: open a flower shop.
Best book of all time? Nine Stories by J.D. Salinger and The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald are always top of my list.
