I believe that people come first. For me, this means if you treat people with respect and genuine care, you are far more likely to build a level of trust that will establish positive, long-term relationships. It’s through these relationships that I have been able to assist people, in one way or another, with their finances for more than two decades.

I came to the mortgage industry after a successful career in the field of loan servicing and collections. I knew the powerful effect of being able to help people figure out how to find security by achieving their financial goals, and I wanted to create and even larger impact. I am able to do that now by helping my clients achieve their dream of homeownership, or by showing them how refinancing could put them on more secure financial footing. The rewards of witnessing this positive effect in my clients’ lives can’t be understated.

Effective communication and attention to detail are my key elements for providing excellent customer service. My team and I keep my clients and their realtors updated with every step of the loan process, so all are on the same page and any obstacles are dealt with quickly. And, although I enjoy working on all types of loans, there’s something special about helping first-time homebuyers get the funding they need to make their dream of homeownership a reality.

Although I’ve called Tennessee my home for nearly 30 years, I was born in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and raised in Central Florida. I am proud of my Native American heritage and am a member of the Grand Traverse Band of Ottawa & Chippewa Indians. In my spare time, I enjoy being with my family and friends, taking my Jeep for a ride or hiding out in my “She Man” Cave.
