Day to Day

I start the day with a Branch huddle to go over expectations for the week and share successes with the group. The day continues with me coaching and developing my team to be the best they can be. I also ensure that they are helping our clients reach their financial goals. Throughout the day I oversee branch operations and perform audits on paperwork. I keep my staff motivated and ensure they are working to reach their overall professional goals.
