    I am grateful every day for this job. I grew up on a farm, but as a kid, up in my room I had New York stock exchange reports spread across my floor. It was quite the contrast to what I did outside each day. There are those people who don’t know what they want to do when they grow up. That wasn’t me.

    20-something years ago, I started as an intern at UBS. I began my career as more of an analyst. Economic numbers, portfolio analysis and complicated spreadsheets were a big part of what I did. As my career has progressed, I have seen the amazing value of money, not for what it is, but for what it can do. I am passionate about the power of what my clients and I can do. Money can be a facilitator of dreams, both present and future. It is my greatest spiritual joy I get from my career at UBS: I help people achieve their greatest hopes, and help clients finance their biggest dreams.
