About Us

After working in manufacturing for over 20+ years, my position as Director of First Impressions is completely different, new and exciting.  I am enjoying learning aspects of financial planning but best of all, meeting our clients has been a pleasure.

After growing up in a household that was on welfare for most of my childhood in a rural town that had no opportunities, I learned how quickly you can get trapped in a bad situation that can take years, if not decades to get out of. This, while it was a struggle at the time, was a great motivator and a valuable life lesson. The lesson is … you need to learn how to manage your money no matter how small the paycheck, and not just for this month’s bills, but long term.

I have been married to my husband Joe for 17 years and we have a furry son named Chico the chubby chihuahua.  We enjoy camping, or “glamping” all over this beautiful state of ours. My hobbies are cooking/baking, traveling and wildlife/landscape photography. My husband got interested in vintage VWs at an early age and has always owned VWs. Currently we have a 1957 Euro Beetle and attend a lot of car shows throughout the area. It’s a great way to connect with interesting people and make friends for life.
