Our financial beginnings were humble but we were rich in family values. Our parents both had an entrepreneurial spirit, but circumstances primarily out of their control significantly diminished our family's ability to do more than scrape by financially. There were hard times, but they helped create some of our core values early on. We learned to appreciate the value of a dollar but that a person's worth is not based on their financial status. We also learned early in life that your word is your bond, and your character and integrity will shine through when all else fails, regardless of the situation. Growing up playing sports and working at young ages taught us determination and perseverance. We utilize those traits today when faced with a complex situation. We are not good at accepting the concept that something is not possible, and we take exhaustive measures to find a way to solve the needs of our clients. We have carried these core values throughout our personal lives and professional careers and have built a reputation for doing what is right. We are proud of our positive impact on the people and community around us.
