I attribute my success to what I'm doing now, which is my most notable achievement. When my father had a stroke back in 2008, he was bedridden for 8 years before he passed away, and it was really hard for the family to figure out care and expenses. That was an awakening for me. Now I'm in this role and my passion is to teach people that even though you're healthy now, you don't know what the next 24 hours or next 50 years will bring. It's all really just educating people. I'm passionate about it because I've seen my own family go through it, and it's hard. I also went to Arizona State for my bachelor's degree and studied business there, and also computer science. I thought I was going to pursue the computer side, but when you're involved with computers, you're not connecting with people, and it turned out that wasn't meant for me. I'm more meant to connect with people.

The best career advice I’ve ever received is that you can build a successful and rewarding career by helping others. That perspective has guided my professional journey and reinforced the importance of creating value, building strong relationships, and supporting those around me. A recent highlight that reflects this mindset was winning a trip to Italy through my company’s 2024 sales contest, an achievement that recognized my dedication, customer-focused approach, and commitment to excellence.

My advice to young women entering this industry is to remember that you can build a fulfilling and rewarding career by helping others. Stay focused on making a positive impact and ensuring that people’s health and well-being remain a top priority. By leading with compassion, empathy, and a genuine commitment to serving others, you can create meaningful change while achieving both personal and professional success.

Having been in my current role for the past five years after transitioning from the airline industry, one of the biggest challenges has been adapting to the constantly evolving healthcare landscape and the changing needs of members. At the same time, this presents a significant opportunity to improve the customer experience, strengthen member engagement, and help ensure that individuals receive the support and resources they need to prioritize their health and well-being.

The values that are most important to me, both professionally and personally, center on helping others, education, and service. In my work, I genuinely care about my clients and am committed to ensuring they understand their insurance options and potential financial responsibilities, as many rely on guidance to make informed decisions. Outside of work, I extend that commitment through volunteer service as a relationship manager in a mentorship program, where I help connect young professionals with mentors who can support their career development. Whether assisting clients or mentoring the next generation, I find the greatest fulfillment in empowering others with the knowledge, resources, and support they need to succeed.
