Originally from North Dakota, I began my academic journey at Gonzaga University, where I established a diverse foundation in history, business, and the sciences. Following a long-standing family tradition, I dedicated the first decade of my career to healthcare as an Operating Room Nurse. Specializing in complex spinal fusions and trauma, I have participated in thousands of surgical procedures—an experience that forged an unwavering commitment to critical thinking, precision, and integrity under the highest stakes imaginable.

​

To pivot toward executive leadership, I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) followed by a Master of Business Administration (MBA) with a concentration in Finance. This academic shift formalised a lifelong passion for market dynamics and capital management.

​

Throughout my career, I have been a disciplined self-educator in the financial markets, managing personal portfolios across diverse asset classes, including:

• Equities & Forex

• Futures & Sector Rotational ETFs

• Leveraged & Inverse Products

​​

My approach integrates rigorous risk management and capital conservation strategies, adapted for varying economic conditions and time horizons. I became fascinated by the direct correlation between macroeconomic shifts and market performance—a fascination that eventually demanded a professional outlet.

In 2021, I founded HARTWEALTHINTERNATIONAL LLC. My mission is to bridge the gap between complex financial theory and practical application, providing accessible, high-level financial education that empowers individuals to manage their portfolios with confidence and clarity.
