What inspires you to come to work each day?

I am inspired to come to work each day because I get to do creative work that fulfills me alongside a team I genuinely respect. I find purpose in knowing that my work contributes to the client experience, even from behind the scenes. Whether it's an email, a social media post, or materials for an in-person meeting, I care about ensuring a consistent brand voice in each interaction a client has with us. I am also proud to work for an RIA firm like Balentine that is truly always doing what is best for the client.

What is the most exotic place you've ever been?

Santa Teresa, Costa Rica. It's like a jungle and a surf town all at once and I loved every moment of my time there. ‍

‍

‍What is your favorite sport or activity? Why?

Yoga! As a former dancer and gymnast, it's the mental and spiritual dimensions that continue to challenge and humble me. I love that no two practices look the same. Each time I step on my mat, I'm asking myself to be present with the moment as it is. Yoga fuels my spiritual, mental, and physical health all at once. My passion for the practice eventually led me to complete my 200-hour yoga teacher training certification, deepening my understanding of yoga from the inside out.

‍How does the work you do make a difference?

My goal is to tell the Balentine story clearly and authentically in everything we put out into the world. Strong relationships are built on trust, and I believe even the small details in how we communicate matter. The way we show up online or at an event can reinforce the security and confidence our clients feel when they connect with us.
