Why I Joined Dixon Financial Services:
Throughout my career in financial services, I have been drawn to organizations that place clients at the center of everything they do. To me, excellent service means more than completing a task, it means being dependable, attending to the details, and making each client feel genuinely supported.
I began my financial career in 2018 at Buckingham Strategic Partners (formerly Loring Ward), where I served as Team Leader of the New Accounts team and gained valuable experience helping advisors and their clients navigate important account-opening and transition processes. I was also honored to receive the firm's Spirit of the Mission Award, which recognizes those who demonstrate a passion to serve, a passion to progress, and a passion to do what is right.
I joined Dixon Financial Services because I saw those same values reflected in the firm's culture. DFS has a clear commitment to building lasting relationships, providing thoughtful and personalized service, and continually improving the client experience. I am excited every day to contribute to that mission, keep expanding my knowledge, and help make a positive difference in the lives of the families we serve.
Outside of Work, My Passions Include:
I enjoy spending time outdoors and exploring the mountains. Hiking, skiing, and kayaking are some of my favorite activities, and I always value time with friends and family. After moving to Walnut Creek from the Sacramento area, I have enjoyed getting to know the community and discovering new trails and outdoor destinations throughout the Bay Area.
