I focus on assisting individuals to establish comprehensive estate and business plans. Often, the areas of estate planning, real estate, and business administration overlap and my expertise allows me to shepherd my clients through a complicated process of putting their affairs in order for their families and business relations. My goal is to explain matters in real-world language so that each client is comfortable with each step of the process - whether that be establishing a living trust, purchasing real estate, or administering a family business.

I am grateful for the opportunity to serve clients in my estate planning practice.  I am honored to be able to help clients express, and carry out, their most basic wishes for their family, and to assist them in preserving, protecting and transferring their personal and financial wealth to those they love, at the appropriate time.  It is a joy to bring peace of mind to those whom I serve.. I love living in rural Minnesota.  I have been blessed with having the opportunity to live on a farm, in small communities, in metropolitan areas, and now in a rural setting.  Most of all, it is the sense of community, feeling connected to that community, and being able to 'give back' to the community, that has been a gift to me.
