What got you interested in this field?
I’ve always been drawn to math/accounting/finance, but in college I also discovered a real interest in psychology. The mix of analytical thinking and people-focused work is what makes my role fulfilling. I enjoy collaborating with team members to create systems that bring efficiency and predictability.
Family
I’ve been married for more than 27 years. We’ve been blessed with three children, two sons-in-law, and one grandchild.
Hobbies and Relaxation
- Boating is one of our favorite family pastimes—West Michigan summers make it especially enjoyable!
- I love helping people bring a sense of calm to their homes by organizing spaces that feel a bit overwhelming.
- I’m known for taking a lot of pictures—can you ever really have too many?
