Department

As Chief of Staff, I don't technically have a department at NDTCO. I am here to support our entire staff in whatever capacity I possibly can.

Responsibilities

I am part advisor, part gatekeeper, part daily problem solver, and part all-around strategic advisor to develop and execute strategies that will contribute toward the organization's short and long-term goals. As a strategist, consultant, and implementer, I help ensure alignment of our company's internal and external activities based on the priorities set by the company owners and the Board of Directors.

What makes me a great member of the team

I bring three primary principles to my daily practices:

• Be Respectful - When working with a team you must understand that everyone brings unique backgrounds, opinions, and experiences. A great team has respect for each member's differences.
• Engage in Curiosity - Be the person who has intellectual hunger. Solve the real problem, not just the symptom of the problem. Rather than settling for the bare minimum, strive to excel in everything you do.
• Communicate - Teams can stall when assumptions are made. Make no assumptions. Get up, meet your team face-to-face, and over-communicate. Leave nothing to chance.

My passion at NDTCO

I have two passions at NDTCO:

• My deep desire to empower individuals to have control over their own decisions. NDTCO provides services that give people control and flexibility in their own financial decisions, which I am very proud to be a part of.
• My absolute respect for the team at NDTCO. I had the honor of working with the leaders of NDTCO before joining the company. Their commitment to moving NDTCO forward is contagious and drives my passion to help make NDTCO awesome(r).

My passion outside of NDTCO

I am a secret gamer (I know, super geeky). There is nothing I love more than an epic video game that allows me to chill on my couch and turn off the world for a short period of time. I also love skiing, everything about it. The weather, the people, the gear, spending time with my family, beer(s) at the end of the day, catching a bluebird day with fresh powder...I love all of it.

What I love about living in Colorado

The unique people. Passionate people live in Colorado. I will never get tired of meeting interesting people who do extraordinary things.
