Welcome to the informational page for our 2025 Arizona Special Event. We were thrilled to have nearly 100 clients and friends join us in the Casa Grande at the Arizona Biltmore for the big day, live and in-person. Kicking off our Client Education Series for the year, we provided you with a delicious lunch, musical entertainment, and an educational presentation from our keynote speaker, Mike Collins of PGIM Investments. We were excited to fly down south again - it had been too long time since our 2018 Arizona Special Event!
