Why do I love my job?

I love my job because I feel aligned with the company’s values and mission—it truly resonates with what I believe in. It’s empowering to be part of an organization that genuinely cares about its people and creates a culture of respect, inclusion, and growth. What stands out the most to me is how opportunities are given based on potential, dedication, and drive, not just on background or formal education. Being in an environment where I feel seen, supported, and encouraged to grow both personally and professionally makes my work deeply fulfilling.

When I’m not at work, you can find me….

When I’m not at work, you can find me spending quality time with my kids, whether we’re exploring the outdoors, playing games, or just enjoying a good laugh together. I also love swimming, working out, and practicing yoga—it helps me stay grounded and energized. Cooking is another passion of mine, and I’m always on the lookout for new recipes to try and share. I enjoy hosting small get-togethers with friends, where we catch up on life and often find ourselves deep in conversation about creative ideas, future plans, and new projects. Those moments keep me inspired and connected.

How does what I do impact others?

My role plays a key part in supporting my team across various projects and goals. By staying organized, proactive, and collaborative, I help ensure everything runs smoothly behind the scenes. Together, we work toward a shared purpose—to uplift our clients and help them reach their financial milestones. It’s rewarding to know that my contributions help create a positive impact not just for our team, but for the lives of the people we serve.

2 favourite things about your life journey so far?

Two of my favorite things about my life journey so far are the courage it took to move from Mexico to Canada in 2018 with my kids to start a new life, and the incredible growth that has come from that decision. Uprooting everything and starting over in a new country was challenging, but it taught me resilience, independence, and the importance of staying hopeful and determined. The second is my love for learning—I’m always curious and eager to discover new things, whether it’s through formal education, life experiences, or exploring new ideas and skills. That mindset has helped me adapt and thrive through all of life’s changes.

What type of clients do you enjoy working with?

I enjoy working with clients who are open-minded, motivated, and willing to learn how to improve their lives. It’s incredibly rewarding to support individuals who are committed to personal growth and open to new ideas, especially when it comes to building a better future for themselves and their families. I’m inspired by clients who are eager to take action, ask questions, and embrace new strategies that lead them toward long-term success. Being part of their journey and seeing their transformation over time is one of the most fulfilling aspects of what I do.
