I met Don Christensen, and from day one something clicked. That relationship just grew and he became way more than a financial advisor. He's been there for everything in my life. He's been a mentor. He introduced me to the importance of giving. He started talking about the importance of not just giving, but also going in person, whatever it is that you're doing, and going in person and experiencing the whole thing and having an impact on people.
