I have been in the death care profession since 1990.  I started as production coordinator at Franklin Casket Company in Brookville, IN.  When the casket company was sold I was offered a position selling caskets throughout the tri state area. From there I was offered a position selling prearranged funeral plans with Carriage Services in Cincinnati, OH.  I worked my way up as a regional manager for Carriage Services. After 6 years the preneed program changed and the position was eliminated.

In 2001, the opportunity arose to purchase a funeral home. I owned and operated this funeral home for 5 years. Then sold the business, but remained with the company for several years.

In 2007 I returned to pre-need full time, forming Heartland PreNeed Systems, an independent agency representing Homesteaders Life Company.
