  • Favorite Thing About My Job: How supportive and positive the team is! The prospect of diving into the corporate world made me more nervous than parent-teacher conferences ever did, but the energy at Prosperity is so welcoming that I immediately felt comfortable. Everyone genuinely wants you to succeed, which made transitioning into a new field far less intimidating than I ever expected. At Prosperity, your colleagues are always happy to lend a hand or answer a question, all you have to do is ask. I feel incredibly fortunate to be part of such a cohesive team.
  • Desert Island Book: Jane Eyre or The Picture of Dorian Gray – I’m a self-proclaimed English lit nerd!
  • Favorite concert you’ve attended: Electric Forest in Rothbury, Michigan is my all-time favorite festival. It’s a whole weekend of escaping into nature, listening to my favorite music, and connecting with the coolest people!
  • Favorite workout or sport to play: Dance and Pilates! I’ve danced my whole life, and it has always been my favorite way to clear my mind and re-center. Music + movement is my go-to mood booster.
