ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS

Growing up on a farm in Kansas formed the core of who I am and taught me that having a good work ethic, prioritizing resources and taking care of one another was what made life fulfilling. The road was not always easy but I was sure that helping others was my top priority. 

The reward is in the process.
We grew up relying on what we produced: meat and eggs from chickens, milk from the dairy, meat from the cattle and hogs, and vegetables and fruit from the garden. We didn’t expect to love everything we did, but we respected the fact that we were responsible for getting it done. The reward was in the process of working the farm together, the security of being self-sufficient and the harvest that supported us.

Planning for the future is critical.
An important lesson from life on the farm: Always plan for the unexpected, because you don’t know if it will be a good or a bad year. I grew up understanding the difference between a need and a want, which has helped me put in perspective what true wealth really is. It’s not only about the size of the bank account but the attitude and values of the people behind it.

Putting it all together.
I grew up with everything a child could want: self-worth, lots of excellent food (my mom is a great cook!), a home and farm managed with pride, and loving friends and family.

My mother says when I was a toddler and she needed time to mop and wax floors, all she had to do was put me in a corner with some puzzles. This desire to solve puzzles probably led to my enjoyment of math and numbers – working with them was just like a puzzle. Today, I use those skills to create investment options that help clients achieve their retirement dreams.

From engineer to financier.
My interests in high school led me to an engineering degree from the University of Kansas. Later, in my career as a teacher in the engineering department at Johnson County Community College, I discovered the joy of helping people learn. That passion also helps me teach clients about the characteristics of market cycles, which helps them make better investment decisions. As a passion, I began researching and taking quizzes in the financial sector and quickly found myself fascinated with the field. My move to my current career was just putting it all together and living my purpose. 

Living my purpose, sowing and reaping through finance.
For more than 12 years, I’ve been helping clients reach their financial goals by providing a tailored approach to investment management. I manage my clients accounts with one purpose in mind: bettering their financial future and always keeping their goals in site. By putting the clients needs first, I have successfully helped hundreds of mothers, fathers, brother, sisters, and friends reach their financial goals and build their net worth. I am skilled at developing and implementing highly effective strategies that are uniquely tailored to each client’s needs. I am an Accredited Investment Fiduciary (AIF).  I hold Series 6, 63, 65 and Insurance Producers Licenses.  I am dedicated to continuing education and I continue to study the latest trends in the financial industry. 

I am married to my wonderful husband, Thomas Hoover. We have three grown sons with families. We spend much of our time keeping up with family, hiking and traveling.
