Stephanie and her husband Sam live in Lenexa, Kansas and have been married for over 40 years with two grown daughters.  Her oldest daughter Haley was born 8 months after starting in this business, with Melissa following 3 years later.  Having raised her family while in this business she is well aware how planning for the future is beneficial as saving and paying for college allowed her daughter’s to both receive college degrees without debt.  Haley is an M.D. Anesthesiologist at Kansas University Medical Center and Melissa is a self employed full time Realtor with the M Group, helping clients in Kansas and Missouri sell or purchase their new home. . Stephanie’s father passed away in 2015 after years of caring for her Mom, both in and out of memory care facilities, as her Mom passed from Alzheimer’s disease in 2016 after a 13-year battle. Stephanie served as their Durable Power of Attorney for many years and luckily planned for long term care with them almost 20 years prior which provided them with options offering them dignity without financial concerns.

Stephanie has lived through all stages of the Financial Planning process and wants all of her clients to be as prepared with the knowledge she has been blessed with in providing for their families.

When free time permits she enjoys golf, reading and walking the dog.
