What do you enjoy most about your work?
Helping people is what I love most. Many of our clients come to us feeling overwhelmed or unsure where to start and I take pride in digging into the details to find solutions that give them real peace of mind. No two situations are alike, so I stay flexible, listen closely, and offer support that makes a real difference in their day-to-day lives.
What do you enjoy outside of the office?
I love being outdoors – whether it’s hiking Colorado trails, camping under the stars, or taking my two labs swimming. Travel is a passion of mine, and I enjoy exploring both new destinations abroad and hidden gems closer to home. Some of my favorite days start slowly with coffee on the patio and end with backyard badminton matches with my three grown sons, who bring out plenty of laughter and remind me not to take life too seriously. I also enjoy catching live music or sporting events, discovering new restaurants (especially Japanese or other Asian cuisine), and spending time with family. Having lived in Hokkaido, Japan as a child, I still carry a deep appreciation for Japanese culture and for good sushi! At home, our pets add plenty of character: two energetic labs and my grouchy but beloved cat, Tim.
What is your greatest accomplishment?
Personally, I’m most proud of raising three kind, thoughtful, and funny sons. Watching them grow into amazing adults and having close friendships with each of them is something I treasure. Professionally, I’ve worked with incredible organizations, including a nonprofit supporting women in need and now, being part of building the Atlas team at Origin is something I’m incredibly proud of. It’s a true joy to be part of something that supports people in such meaningful ways.
Greatest extravagance under $50?
A cool belt.
