A little about the people behind Storing Treasures

Mike Haswell

Mike Haswell, AFCPE, CPCU, is passionate about teaching biblical financial principles to help people become free from the worries over debt and money. He has been independently involved with volunteer financial counseling through different churches and organizations over the past decade.

In his years of counseling, he has seen similar problems caused by similar issues. Families were in financial trouble due to an inability to communicate effectively about money, a lack of basic financial skills and knowledge and, most of all, poor decisions that were in conflict with their overall belief system.

His goal was to build a financial program that dealt not only with the money issues but also the personal issues behind them. His desire was to build a financial system different than any other on the market. Rather than a single set approach that everyone had to adopt, he wanted to design a program that had the flexibility to adapt to people’s varying personalities and needs. In short, a financial plan they could understand and stick with for life.

Mike (Storing Treasures Financial Personality: Statesman) is the Owner of Storing Treasures. He has a Bachelor of Science in Economics from Georgia Tech and has designations in both AFPCE and CPCU.

Mike has worked in the insurance industry for almost 18 years in various leadership roles. He has also taught numerous financial management classes in different churches throughout the past 20 years and created the Storing Treasures Program in 2004 to help individuals better understand themselves regarding money.

Mike has previous experience as an officer in church leadership and is currently on the Board of a ministry that provides support to single mothers. He is married to Tonya (Storing Treasures Financial Personality: Cruise Director), they have four children, and live in Lawrenceville, GA.

Sharon Epps

Sharon Epps, Client Relations Manager, is a “recovering” corporate banker who used to believe that “all things” money could be captured on a spreadsheet. Fortunately, in the year 2000, God introduced her to His view on money. He revealed His role as owner and her role as steward. She’s been “in recovery” ever since.

After her stint in the banking arena, Sharon served four years as a church stewardship director in Texas, where she developed and led seminars, workshops and in-depth financial counseling training.

Sharon worked for Crown Financial Ministries seven years, served on the executive leadership team, and was a frequent co-host on Crown’s weekday radio program.
