"Annette Hopper worked for me for nearly twenty years.  Over that period, she rose from a part time administrator to a Partner and Chief Administrative Officer at Minot Capital.  She earned every inch of her advancement.  Annette’s deep integrity, fierce devotion to her clients, extraordinary capacity to grow into new roles, intense work ethic, attention to detail, and courage to speak reality as she sees it combine to create an unusual and entrepreneurial talent that works relentlessly on behalf of her clients. I hired Levi Hammett while he was still in college, and we worked together for nearly 10 years. Like Annette, Levi demonstrated an unusual ability to learn and grow into a myriad of roles that bridged administration, compliance, technology, and analytics.  Levi also demonstrated a clarity of mind in stressful situations unusual for a professional so early in his career. By personality, neither Annette nor Levi can go home when numbers do not add up.  They sweat problems until inconsistencies are reconciled.  I never saw them take the easy or sloppy route out of a problem. The world and financial markets evolve at a tremendous pace.  I have always felt that the best team members are those that are competitive, learn very quickly, have formidable work ethics, and are guided by a strong internal set of values.  Annette and Levi embody those characteristics, and I wholeheartedly support them in their new endeavour"
