  • What do you love most about working at IA Business Advisors?

    That I get to bring my best self to work. That I get to learn and grow alongside an incredible team. That I get to bring this same energy and passion into my work with our clients and partners.

  • What is the best piece of advice you have ever been given?

    From Winston Churchill, I learned about perseverance and dedication. Or as he said it, “Success is the ability to go from failure to failure without losing your enthusiasm.”

  • What would you want your superpower to be if you were a superhero?

    My kids ask me this all the time. Originally, I said invisibility until my son convinced me that teleportation was better. He’s right! To be able to teleport anywhere at any time sounds like the ultimate superpower.

  • What are some of your personal goals?
    • After watching Ted Lasso, I’m endeavoring to be more curious and less judgmental. Or as Stephen Covey put it, “We judge ourselves by our intentions and others by their behavior.”
    • Presence in everything I do – especially with my family. Put the phone away. Ask better questions. Laugh more.
    • Slowing down (hard for a guy that would come back as an F1 driver). Ferris Bueller said, “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you’ll miss it.” I’m ready to stop missing things and being in the moment more.

  • What is your personal motto?

    “The real act of discovery consists not in finding new lands, but in seeing with new eyes.” – Marcel Proust
