WHAT I LOVE THE MOST ABOUT MY JOB - What I love most about my job is helping people. I find out where my clients are financially, where they need to go, and show them how to accomplish that through tax planning, whether it be real estate, retirement planning, or starting a business.

HOMETOWN - My hometown is not a town; I am from the country. When people ask me where I’m from, I tell them, well…we get our mail in Quitman, Louisiana. I went to school in Jonesboro, Louisiana, but I’m really from St. Rest and very proud of my community. Education is stressed, as it never crossed my mind that I would NOT go to college. We raised and grew our food. You had peas and bread one day and bread and peas the next day. If you killed a cow, you had steak and gravy; a hog, pork chops. You went to church every Sunday, for that was not an option.

WHAT I LIKE THE MOST ABOUT ATLANTA - I love the weather after living in Chicago and you have the option of doing almost anything you want from sports, to the arts, dancing and the best churches. The diversity of people is great. If you can’t make it in Atlanta, you may not be trying hard enough because you can start a business and make as much money as you are willing to work or manage.

BEST ADVICE I’VE EVER BEEN GIVEN - Go to school, get a good job and pay your bills on time and yes, PUT GOD FIRST.

THE MOUNTAINS, THE BEACH OR THE LAKE? - The beach is very relaxing, and usually somewhere around there is also good seafood.
