Business & Marketing Manager


My Story

When I joined RDFA over a decade ago I was a little apprehensive. I had worked in the architectural field for over twenty years and knew very little about the financial world. I am passionate about taking care of people and after learning more about the guidance and peace of mind the team at Ritter Daniher provides their clients, I knew I had made the right decision to join this amazing group of people. My role includes supporting John with managing the business side of things as well as developing marketing strategies to promote client engagement by leveraging both social media and local networking opportunities. It also brings me joy to plan our client events and provide personal touch points when it’s a client’s birthday, special occasion or just to let them know we are thinking of them during a difficult time. It’s a privilege to work alongside people who care so much about their clients.
