Meet the Team
Emily Zwach
President
Emily Zwach is the President and founder of Synergy Financial Resources LLC. With years of experience in sales and leasing, Emily has been refining her skill set since 1996 when she began her career at Lyon Financial Services. The service-oriented culture there helped mold her and has been carried with her through her career. Her entrepreneurial spirit can be witnessed by not only the people she works with but by the companies she helps grow through different capital options.
Her favorite part of Synergy is the people. She has been fortunate to grow the business with like-minded, hard working people that are like family. She embraces the old adage of do what you love and you never work a day in your life. Emily attended South Dakota State University where she played volleyball and pursued her business degree. Go Jacks!
Emily and her very patient husband Jim reside in South Dakota. Her daughter is pursuing a career in theatre at the Tisch school at NYU and her son is going to attend Mitchell Tech in the fall to become a lineman. Emily loves spending time at the lake and has a passion for surfing in the summer and snowboarding in the winter months. Volleyball still provides an outlet for her competitive spirit and allows her to revisit her youth.
