Throughout my life, helping others has been an integral part of who I am. I chose a career with Edward Jones after seeing the positive impact and sincere interest both my dad and brother had with their clients and their families. I am proud to partner with a firm that puts the client first with a high level of personalized service and a tailored investment approach.I graduated from the University of Central Florida and dove right into my career as an educator. Throughout my 13 years in education, I was able to make an impact on students and families in the county I grew up in and in the current neighborhood I live in. As I transitioned from the classroom, I knew I had to continue helping and educating people. Following in my dad and brother's footsteps, I began my career with Edward Jones. Outside of work, you will always find me with my family. My husband is a firefighter/Paramedic with the Pinellas Park Fire Department, and we have three busy children. If we aren't at the baseball or soccer field, we love to spend our time hiking, traveling and playing with our Golden Retriever and Frenchie. I am also an involved member of our school's PTO and the Starkey Little League. My practice is supported by a team of awarded professionals. Deborah Casey and Maria Vafiadis are both senior branch office administrators and take great pride in providing clients with the highest level of service possible. We are so fortunate to be able to serve our community and are eager to help more people make sense of investing.If you are interested in seeing if we are a good fit, please reach out to my office at 727-784-1952 for an introductory meeting.
