In 2019, my uncle passed away suddenly. There was no plan in place, and my aunt was left making a multitude of decisions in a short period of time. This event shifted my focus and permanently changed the dynamic of our family. Shortly after, a friend who works in funeral service encouraged me to consider a career helping families with their advanced funeral planning. The shift was a perfect fit due to my passion for serving people and meeting their needs. I have no regrets in making the change. I find great fulfillment in working with families, hearing their stories, and helping them make decisions that will benefit their loved ones for years to come. Every life is worth celebrating, so I want to help you develop a plan that reflects your personal wishes and also meets the emotional needs of your family.
