This week, two of our interns are serving on a mission trip in Guatemala.

We’re proud of the way they represent our team—not just through their work in the office, but through their willingness to serve others.

Our third intern is spending the week serving in a different way at football camp, and we definitely miss having the whole group together!

One of the greatest blessings of building our firm has been investing in young people who are looking for more than just a job. Character, integrity, a heart to serve, and a desire to keep learning are qualities that matter to us.

As our firm continues to grow, we're looking for more people who share those values. We have several opportunities available in a variety of roles including client services or even advisor who want to have a different experience with career and life. And no—you don't have to go to Guatemala! But if serving your community (or supporting missions locally and around the world) is important to you, you'll fit right in.

If you're looking for a career where you can grow professionally while making a difference, we'd love to talk.

Oh and I do not know what those vases they are holding is all about. We will post more about their trip next week.

Blessings:
