About Emily:

From her work at Sterling to her off-hour pursuits, Emily has always believed in the power of listening – whether she’s avidly tuning into a crime podcast or historical documentary, rocking out to a long jam performed by her favorite band or even interacting with her beloved Lab, Reba.

For Emily, it all comes down to communication…and harnessing that synergy to build truly personal relationships with clients and other professionals.

“Managing trusts is about really hearing people,” she says. “By asking the right questions and listening to answers, we offer a combination of protecting assets and caring for clients. It’s not just about safeguarding assets but to ensure a family’s legacy over time.”
