“I come from a working-class family – both of my parents grew up on farms in the Midwest, in fact. So I identify with working folks – the average guy. It’s really important in this business to establish a personal connection with your client – communicate with them fully and respectfully. Unfortunately, a lot of workers don’t get that kind of treatment from professionals – they are dismissed, or talked down to, or made to feel unimportant. You won’t get that at Rutter Mills – not from me or anybody in this firm. You’re the client – and we’re here to help.”
