When I’m not helping clients navigate their financial future, you’ll find me running with my two energetic huskies, training and teaching Tang Soo Do as a 1st-degree “Cho Dan” black belt, or exploring the great outdoors. I love hiking with my kids—and even with my clients—because I believe some of the best conversations happen on the trail.
