"I never thought that I'd find my dream career right out of college."

Advice to Others: Be present; always keep moving forward and in the right direction.
Years With First Investors: 4
Prior Occupation: Musician, Sales Associate

I'm no stranger to hard work and dedication. Throughout college, I worked four jobs while I was a full-time student. The long hours of work and study prepared me well for the real world that awaited me upon graduation. But I never thought that I'd find my dream career right out of college.

When I was hired by First Investors Corporation, I had the feeling that it was the start of something extremely rewarding. Being a competitive person by nature, I have always welcomed challenges in my life. When I asked about the income possibilities, my manager said that if I worked hard and followed his advice, income would never be a problem. So I followed his directions and voluntarily worked 65-hour weeks in order to build my business. When I look back now, it's remarkable how right my manager was.

The past few years have flown by quickly. My focus is still on building my client base and cultivating relationships for the long term. That is my bread and butter. For me, it's all about consistently working hard and helping people. My advice to new representatives is to make your sacrifices when you're young, when you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. By working hard and staying dedicated to helping your clients, you can pave your own road to financial independence.
