Senior Mortgage Broker Lofgren Lending Group, Flat Branch Home Loans
Adam is a lifetime resident of Peoria, Illinois, a father of two young sons – Hudson and Brooks – and has spent the last ten years in the banking industry. He is currently Senior Mortgage Broker at Lofgren Lending Group, Flat Branch Home Loans. Adam has served on the Junior Achievement Governing Board and has volunteered since 2014, teaching JA Personal Finance and JA Finance Park. He is currently a member of the JA Young Professionals board and leads their High School Heroes Program at Richwoods High School, where he graduated in 2005 before attending the University of Illinois. Thinking to the future, Adam has hopes to expand the implementation of JA High School Heroes to other area high schools in an effort to benefit more elementary schools. When asked about why he is drawn to volunteering with Junior Achievement, Adam imparts, “The majority of my job involves credit and finances, which are large components of every single person’s life. JA places a significant focus on teaching financial literacy through their learning experiences. Students need the tools necessary to build their credit score and financial profile which ultimately will become the foundation of the most important decisions they make over the course of their entire lives. Through my volunteerism with JA, it is incredibly rewarding to know that I am passing on these critical life skills to young minds.”
