Kira in real life

What keeps you busy outside of work?

I enjoy spending time with family and friends and participating in hockey, yoga, golf, skiing, hiking, traveling, camping, meditation, reading, cooking, and hosting.

Any words you try to live by?

If no one ever saw where I lived, what I wore, or what I earned, would I still be proud of myself?

Why do you like working at Mercer Advisors?

I like working at Mercer Advisors because it aligns with how I believe wealth should be managed. I am drawn to the collaborative culture and the ability to really understand each client’s full story so I can help them make decisions that reflect what matters most to them — not just financially but in their overall life.
