Personal

I’m grateful to work for a company that strives to positively impact people’s lives through wise financial counsel. At Foster Group, I have the privilege of helping clients gain the confidence and peace of mind they need to pursue meaningful, fulfilling lives, whether that means achieving financial independence, supporting their families, or giving generously to causes they care about. It’s incredibly rewarding to assist in guiding clients on this journey.

What makes this even more fulfilling is being part of a firm that genuinely cares for both its clients and employees. Working alongside a team that is dedicated to making a difference, both personally and professionally, makes the work I do even more meaningful.

Outside of work, I love spending summers at the lake with my family, where we enjoy boating, fishing, and creating memories together. Quality time with family and friends is also important to me, whether we’re sharing a meal, catching up, or enjoying outdoor activities. I’m an avid baseball and golf fan, so you can typically find me watching a game or hitting the golf course.
