Support what you love—and love what you support.

I’m proud to sponsor the Minnesota Mountain Bike Series, an organization that brings together and supports an incredible community of riders across our state.

If you’ve ever thought about trying a race, I highly recommend it—it’s an absolute blast.

Wow—just wow! I had the joy and honor of listening to Ms. Reisdorf’s 3rd graders present their marketing plans, and I was blown away. They did an incredible job! What an amazing opportunity for them—and such a privilege for me to be there and be so impressed.

You don’t need a fortune to start investing—just a plan. Even small, consistent investments can grow into something big over time. The key? Getting started. ⬇️

When you've been busy with a growing family and financial goals like buying a house or paying down debt, it's understandable that you might have put off investing or felt that it's not really for you. But you and your family deserve the benefits of investing, too.

The Forest Lake Senior Seminar & Expo was the place to be. Oh, my goodness. Alpacas are so soft!

Sometimes even small adjustments, like reviewing your withholdings or retirement contributions, can create opportunities. Take a look at 2026 tax brackets and the diversification strategies that may be right for you. ⬇️

Musicians always hit a familiar chord with fans when they sing about life’s mysteries, like love, loss, growing up, looking back—and taxes. The Beatles and Johnny Cash, among many other familiar artists, made hits about taxes that still find their way on to playlists because everyone can relate.

Great questions and great conversation at my 5 Phases of an Individual Retirement Arrangement workshop at Chisago Lakes Area High School. It’s always helpful to cut through the noise and talk things through together.

We had a fantastic time at the Forest Lake Area Chamber of Commerce Lakes Area Expo! With spring in the air and golf balls finding their mark, it was a great day connecting with the community. Congratulations to our drawing winners who took home a pro‑level golf basket and a Topgolf experience—we couldn’t be happier for them!
