✨ Office Spotlight: Holly Boroos ✨
📍 Where are you originally from?
I am originally from Thief River Falls. I moved to the Grand Forks / East Grand Forks area 10 years ago.
💼 What is your role, and what does a typical day look like?
Because we’re a smaller office, I wear many hats—but my main role is Financial Planning Team Lead. I help support newer financial representatives as they grow their businesses by handling behind-the-scenes work and staying on top of client follow-ups. I’m also involved in developing interns through our college financial representative program.
🎉 How long have you been with Northwestern Mutual?
I celebrated my 10-year work anniversary in April!
❤️ What is your favorite part about working here?
There are so many things I enjoy about my job. I've built great relationships with current and former financial representatives, team members, and clients. What I really love is that no two days are the same—you never know what each day will bring. Plus, I learn something new every day.
🌿 What do you enjoy doing outside of work?
My husband and I live on 7 acres out in the country with our dog, two cats, and chickens. We've expanded our garden, so in the fall, a lot of my time is spent canning vegetables. Outside of that, I enjoy fishing, golfing, spending time at the cabin, following my daughter in all of her activities, and traveling.
Thanks, Holly, for everything you do to support our team and clients. We're lucky to have you!
