Financial Advisor Experience

Hi, I grew up on a farm near Beach, North Dakota (no sand or water!) in a family of seven. I've been a resident of Bismarck since graduating from the University of Mary with my finance degree and MBA. During my earlier corporate career with a local Fortune 500 company, I enjoyed many financial conversations with pre-retirees. A recurring theme was advisors were handling their investments, but not as helpful with comprehensive retirement planning. And they NEVER touched tax advice! Energized Retirement Planners was formed to fill this void with a specialized team who provide retirement planning that includes not just investment management but also tax advice, bucket list spending, healthcare and estate strategies. I believe tax planning is so important that I acquired my Enrolled Agent designation from the IRS to ensure my clients are able to maximize spending while minimizing expenses such as income tax, estate tax, probate fees and Medicare surcharges. We added tax preparation to become an all-in-one firm. When I’m not assisting clients, my family loves attending school activities or chauffeuring our two dogs, Mia and Brynn, to the river. In my down time, I’m lifting weights, riding mountain bike with friends or playing caddie for my son around the golf course. If you see a muddy red truck with two dogs hanging out the window, it might be me.
