My background in insurance is: Back in 2001, while in college, I started in insurance as an intern. I fell in love and have been a student of Risk Management and Insurance Brokerage ever since.

There is always something new to learn and that is what I love about insurance.

One of my favorite activities in Chicago is: Riding my bike from Evanston to Field Museum along the lakefront and back. It is the most peaceful, serene and soul recharging activity.

A skill I am cultivating is: Organizational Management and Human Resources. I have always been a take charge and get work done type of personality. Managing a company and team members is

a skill I am cultivating as we grow.

One way I get involved with my community is: I have joined couple of our neighbors to help preserve and maintain a small lake in our neighborhood.

On Sunday morning you can usually find me: Playing soccer. I have been an avid soccer player since childhood and continue to play and improve my game.

A daily habit that helps me succeed is: Praying first thing in morning when I wake up. Prayers help me to start the day with gratitude and belief that everything will be ok.
