Welcome back, Jenn!
After a 7-month hiatus to care for her newborn baby girl (Brooke), Jenn is coming back to the office part time.

Welcome Yoyo Chen!
A few weeks back, we welcomed Yoyo Chen to the Napier Financial team. She joined our operations team, and most people on this weekly newsletter will connect with Yoyo (if they haven’t already) in the next few weeks or months.

Disney For The Win!
Last week, Ashley and I took our two girls down to Disney for a week to spend some much-needed family time together. The trip was a blast and we had near perfect weather to accompany us, which helps. It started with our girls’ first time in an airplane – which, at that moment, was the…

It was another eventful night in our neighborhood for a classic New England style Halloween. The leaves are turning, the cool air rolled in, and the streets are full of kids looking to fill that plastic pumpkin with as many sweet treats as possible. The adults mulled some cider and wagons were in full force…
Travel Is Back
It feels to me that everything travel related is back in full swing. It really started earlier this year and ramped up in the summer. Airports are full, highways are busy, and hotel prices are up (if available at all!). I have had a little travel myself over the past few weeks, with my first…
