Jackie began her career with Lerner Financial in 2002, initially building strong relationships in the group benefits sector. In recent years, she has shifted her focus to serving Medicare and individual clients, where she is especially passionate about helping people navigate their coverage options.

She remains committed to ongoing professional development, completing continuing education and annual certifications to stay current in the ever-changing Medicare and Marketplace landscape. Keeping up with yearly plan changes is essential to ensuring her clients receive the most accurate and beneficial guidance.

Outside of work, Jackie cherishes time with family and friends. Having grown up on a dairy farm in a large family, she developed a strong appreciation for close connections—and a lifelong love of baseball, especially cheering on the Detroit Tigers.
