Katrina is a financial advisor with a heart of gold and a passion for helping others succeed. She loves getting to know her clients, understanding what matters most to them, and building thoughtful plans that support their goals through every stage of life. A graduate of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga with a degree in Business Management, Katrina began her career in banking as an Assistant Vice President of Lending. Years of helping individuals, families, and business owners navigate important financial decisions sparked her passion for comprehensive financial planning and ultimately led her to become a financial advisor. She went on to earn her CFP® certification, Tennessee Life Insurance license, and Series 7 and 66 registrations. Katrina believes financial planning is about more than numbers, it’s about helping people make confident decisions that support the people, moments, and life they value most.
Outside of Benchmark, Katrina and her husband, Brandon, juggle their busy family life like superheroes while supporting their four energetic boys: BJ, Kaleb, Blaise, and Khai. Their weekends are often a whirlwind of football, basketball, and soccer, and they’re especially proud of raising young men who understand that some of life’s greatest achievements begin in the classroom. When she’s not cheering from the sidelines, Katrina loves relaxing with an iced coffee and a good book or escaping to the beach whenever possible. She embraces every season of family life and wouldn’t have it any other way.
