Why did you choose the Roaring Fork Valley?

“The mountains are such a magical place and I find great inspiration from their beauty and serenity. I also just love how our valley is full of people that motivate one another to work hard. Our life here is blessed and beautiful; we are very fortunate.”

What does living the “Aspen Idea” mean to you?

“Our culture here is rich and I enjoy exploring the many opportunities we have to stay fit spiritually, intellectually, and physically. For example, I enjoy attending Physics lectures at the Aspen Center for Physics. My true passion, however, is in helping families with disabilities. This is something I am very familiar with, as I have a special needs adult daughter.”

Why did you choose to join the team at Reese Henry?

“Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, ‘If you build a better mousetrap, the world will beat a path to your door.’ We have spent the last 50 years building the firm we have today, and I am confident in what sets our firm apart from the others. It is our town, our clients, and our community, that truly differentiate us, allowing us to compete and practice globally.”
