Best Thing About The Job

"I enjoy meeting different people and getting to know them and their individual circumstances. Planning for and talking about a time when you are no longer here is uncomfortable. I work hard to get the best plan in place for my clients, while understanding the sensitivities around talking about death. My clients often tell me that they have left our meeting feeling like a weight has been lifted from their shoulders."
