Hi! I'm a financial planning student here at Biola. I desire to engage and empower others in the world of finance and the arts. I have constantly been surrounded by numbers and music, with my love growing for them daily. Through it all I have found a true love of servanthood, to return the gifts and lessons I have learned to others so that they may be awoken in their financial literacy. I'm more than happy to help and shape the next group of business leaders, and learn with others along the way! Feel free to ask anything!

Hey there! I’m a senior undergraduate financial planning student here at Biola. I’m 28 years old, and I spent eight years in the United States Army, ran my own personal training business, and have done some high-end car mechanic work and detailing. I have been working since 15 and a half years old, but I’ve been saving and budgeting since as early as I could hide money in my pillowcase as a kid. Saving and budgeting have always been a very enjoyable process for me, and after a few years of life experience, I’ve found a passion for helping others do the same.

I have been at ground zero (more like far negative), and I’ve had six months of expenses saved, including every level in between. I’m sure we can relate somewhere along that path which is why I’m grateful for even the mistakes I’ve made so that I could learn from them and now teach others to do differently.

I believe the Lord has equipped me for and guided me toward this career pathway and I am excited to help anyone navigate the basic fundamentals of personal financial planning. I am excited to hear where you’re at today with your finances, where you’ve come from and where you’d like to go.
