We'd like to celebrate a longstanding chapter member and newly selected FPA MN President Elect: Bruce Lorenz.
Bruce is a financial advisor at NewRetirement Advisors. He has been a part of our chapter for many years, serving on multiple committees. He is currently the chair of the Pro Bono Committee where he helps manage our chapter's relationship with community organizations and provide volunteer opportunities for members.
We are excited to welcome Bruce to our executive committee and as our future 2023 President!
