The Heart Behind Exodus Financial Services  
 
Faith and finance aren’t two separate worlds. It just took me a while to realize I was living like they were. 
 
I have been fascinated by how wealth is built and managed since high school—not just the math of it, but the deep responsibility of managing what we have been given. However, for the first fourteen years of my financial services career, I lived in two different worlds. On Sundays, I was a believer committed to the Word; on Mondays, I was a financial professional following the industry’s "standard" playbook. I practiced good stewardship through tithing, but I hadn’t yet connected the dots about defunding darkness. I didn't realize I had been compartmentalizing my faith—until 2013.
 
In 2013, the light came on. I heard Dan Celia on the radio, and his message on Biblically Responsible Investing (BRI) changed the trajectory of my life. Dan eventually became a profound spiritual and financial mentor to me, showing me that I could no longer help my clients build wealth in companies that contradicted the very values we prayed about on Sunday.
 
  
The Birth of Exodus 
When I began to align my practice with these convictions, I was met with significant opposition and was threatened with the loss of the practice I had built if I persisted in implementing the shift to Biblically Responsible Investing. As I stood my ground, the Lord spoke  to my heart through the story of the 
Exodus. He was not only calling me to come out from among the “world” and be separate and dedicated to His service, He was also equipping me to  lead committed Christian families out of a system of financial compromise and into a "Promised Land" where faith & finance are aligned.  When preparation met God’s timing, I met Glenn Repple, the founder of GA Repple and offered me access to a business platform that was perfectly aligned with the spiritual and financial vision that God gave me. Exodus Financial Services was born from that experience. 
 
  
 
National Expertise, Personal Stewardship 
Today, I serve a nationwide community of families who refuse to choose between their faith and their financial goals. Following in the footsteps of my mentor, I had the honor of serving for several years as the host of the nationally syndicated program 
Financial Issues, leading these vital conversations on a national stage. 
 
  
 
I don’t believe in "default" portfolios or generic ETFs. I hand-select investments to ensure your wealth honors both your milestones and your moral convictions. Whether we are navigating generational wealth strategy or tax-sensitive planning, our work is built around one question: How do we maximize what God has entrusted to us for His kingdom?  
 
Grounded in Values 
While I serve clients across the country, my values remain rooted in the Texas community where I was raised. I live in Orangefield with my husband, Dylan, and our two children. Away from the office, I am most at home studying the Bible, enjoying outdoor sports like fishing, or on the sidelines cheering at my children's sporting events.
 
I started this firm because I believe faithful stewardship changes hearts, and therefore changes lives. I’ve seen the relief and joy that comes when a family finally aligns their resources with their heart—and I am honored to be an advocate for that journey.
