Christy is incredibly passionate about education and strives to empower her clients with the information needed to make the right decisions regarding their practice and opportunities.
“I think the greatest asset you can have when facing an unknown experience in life is data. Most of us always have a gut feeling about something, but having data to support that feeling (or disprove it) is a powerful tool, especially when dealing with a big emotional decision of transition. My goal is to empower our clients with the information they need to feel confident that they are making the right decision. I love helping people and am so lucky to get to do this for our clients each day!”
Christy and her husband, Chris, have two daughters, Lila and Bryn. She spends her free time chasing her girls and getting together with family and friends. If she happens to get a few quiet moments, a good cup of coffee and a good fiction book are how she is likely spending them.
