Diane is originally from the East Coast and earned her degree from the University of Maryland. She moved to Seattle almost 30 years ago, being drawn to the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest, and has made it her home. She joined First Pacific Financial through the acquisition of Ramsey & Associates, where she had served clients as a paraplanner over the last four years. She prides herself on managing a multitude of details and providing excellent support to both our advisors and clients. Prior to that, Diane had a diverse career, from serving nonprofit organizations via fundraising and development to spending over a decade advising corporate clients on their global real estate portfolios. When not working, she loves to spend time with her teenagers, listening to music, exploring nature, writing poetry, and practicing her skills as a novice watercolorist.
