Terri DeBoer

Terri DeBoer joined the team at Jacobs Financial Services as Director of Communications after forecasting West Michigan’s weather for more than thirty years.

In addition to delivering West Michigan’s “wake up” weather, Terri also served as co-host of a daily lifestyle show called eightWest. Through weekly interviews with Tom Jacobs, Terri realized significant similarities between forecasting the weather and forecasting the financial markets. In both areas, having a plan for safety and being prepared for times of uncertainty is critical. Reviewing her personal financial retirement strategy ignited a passion within her to help others create solid plans for a fulfilling retirement. So Terri officially “retired” from WOOD-TV, passed her certification exam, and joined the team at Jacobs Financial Services.
