Personal Insight
Serving in both firm compliance as well as new business development has given Ruth both a unique perspective on the investment advisory business and a diversification of job responsibilities that she truly enjoys. To sum up her perspective on life, Ruth defers to a quote from famed business management speaker Dale Dauten: “If you want to be creative in your company, your career, your life, all it takes is one easy step… the extra one. When you encounter a familiar plan, you just ask one question – What else could we do?” As dog lovers, Ruth and her family generally have at least two four-legged family members under their care. When not tending to their canines, Ruth and her husband, Michael, participate socially in ballroom dancing.
