Sudden Wealth can strike in many ways. It can come through an inheritance, an athlete signing a lucrative contract, a legal settlement, the sale of a company, or even winning the lottery.
Sudden wealth can bring elation and a host of challenges.
Without a sound plan of action, sudden wealth can escape almost as quickly as it came. It can even leave debt in its wake.

While she spends much of her free time with her husband and three children, she also sits on several boards and committees that promote access to financial literacy, and equity & inclusion in the classroom and the boardroom.
