I am the Managing Partner of Straight Path Wealth Management. I currently serve on the Board of Directors for the CFP Board, the oversight body of over 93,000 Certified Financial Planners. It is an honor to have been elected as the youngest-ever Chair of the Board for 2024. Furthermore, I was recognized as a Top 40 Under 40 Advisor in the country in 2020.

I am passionate about enhancing the financial planning profession to better serve clients across the country. I am also passionate about developing a platform that allows financial advisors to be successful, love their career, and serve their clients better.
I reside in Jenison with my wife, two daughters, and son. In the fall and winter, I thoroughly enjoy watching college football and basketball. During the summertime, I enjoy playing golf with a goal of golfing in all 50 states (although I still have a long way to go!).

I am an Enrolled Agent, and I began working for Straight Path in 2019. I handle small business accounting, personal and business tax returns, and 1099’s for our full-service wealth management clients. I graduated from Davenport University, where I received a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting. As an Enrolled Agent, I am licensed to represent clients with tax-related issues in front of the IRS.
My favorite aspect of my job is to take away the burden of the day-to-day bookkeeping operations for small businesses, which results in business owners focusing on what they do best! I also enjoy providing training for business owners who utilize QuickBooks® for their accounting needs.
My husband Nathan and I live in Holland and have two young boys. Together, we love spending time in the U.P., seeing local bands play, and enjoying the outdoors.
