Bio: I started working in the mortgage business in 2001 as a wholesale mortgage banker. Between 2001 and 2008, I trained hundreds of mortgage industry professionals in the SF Bay Area to underwrite and package their loans for banks. In 2008, my bank went bankrupt, and I moved to the retail-side of the business with a company called Guarantee Mortgage. I started my business specializing in FHA loans and found my clients online. After spending 10 years working as a top producing agent at Guaranteed Rate, I took my current position at U.S. Bank. I am excited to offer a great mix of price, product, and service available here to my clients.

Fun-facts: Played baseball in high school and grew up in Southern California. I was the mascot in high school and won homecoming King “as the mascot”. My first job was working in the character department at Disneyland as Pluto, Eeyore, Gepetto, Rafiki to name a few.
