A day in the life of a Wells Fargo manager who works with wealthy business owners and spends most of his workday Ubering to meetings
- Micah Horgen is a business manager leading a Wells Fargo sales team in the Bay Area.
- Horgen recently shared what his typical day is like with Business Insider.
Micah Horgen, 33, is a business acquisition manager and vice president at Wells Fargo Bank.
He manages a team developing business relationships with private clientele in the San Francisco area as well as the Pacific Northwest. The team, which consists of five people spread across different locations, serves small business owners who have made at least $1 million in revenue, from doctors in private practice to attorneys, and helps them reach their financial goals.
Alongside his business role, Horgen is also a husband and father. He lives in Walnut Creek, California, with his wife, Becky, who is a nurse at The University of California, San Francisco, and their two-and-a-half-year-old daughter, Claire.
Here is how his typical day unfolds:
The first alarm rings at 5:30 am, as Becky has to hit the early shift starting at 7. Horgen sneaks in a 30-minute nap before the second alarm gets him out of bed at 6 am.
At 6:15 am, Horgen starts his morning with a cup of pour-over coffee, made with beans from Rooted Coffee, his favorite local roaster. Horgen then gets started on his morning routines, checking emails and watching the morning news.
Horgen also likes to keep tabs on the stock market. When the NYSE opening bell rings at 6:30 am Pacific Time, he opens financial news sites like The Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg to browse the headlines.
At 7:00 a.m., he wakes up his daughter, and gets her dressed and fed.
Horgen usually skips his breakfast aside from the occasional piece of toast. He makes it up by grabbing a bagel and cream cheese at the Starbucks near his office. Once Claire is ready, he leaves the house to drop her off at her aunt's house, where she spends the day playing with four cousins.
