I am a Certified Mortgage Planning Specialist (CMPS) as well as a Veteran Mortgage Advisor (VMA) and would love to help with any questions regarding the mortgage journey.

Some specific ways that I can help you are assessing eligibility, providing mortgage strategies to match your unique goals, sending frequent updates, and collaborating with all parties involved with your loan process.

As a former educator, it's important to me that every step of the process is clearly detailed and explained to set the right expectations.

When I'm not working, I enjoy taking my daughter out on adventures, creating artwork, scuba diving, traveling abroad, and hiking the many beautiful trails in town.
