What is your favorite OPR holiday memory?

In my first year at Obsidian, we took a team trip to San Diego between Thanksgiving and Christmas. It was so fun to see the city and our hotel filled with holiday decorations and lights during that time of the year. It was the perfect trip to get us in the holiday spirit and come back home to wrap the year on a high note. 

What is on your holiday wish list this year?

An iPhone 16 Pro. A girl can wish, right?!

Do you have any clients with products or services that would make great gifts for your loved ones? If so, what are they?

This isn’t right for everyone, but opening an investment account with Bluff City Advisory Group is the gift that (literally) can keep on giving. For example, grandparents can contribute to a child’s 529 plan to support their future education 

If you could have one work-related resolution, what would it be? 

To get my clients featured in a national news outlet.

What is your favorite holiday tradition? 

Celebrating Noche Buena with my family. It’s a Filipino tradition on Christmas Eve, and we cook up a huge late-night feast. We typically finish close to midnight, and when the clock strikes 12, we open presents then instead of waiting until Christmas morning like most American families.
