What I believe

Show people their superpowers.

The way I approach mortgages is the way I approach people: do the work, be honest, and use what you know to help someone else see what is possible.

To inspire people, do not show them your superpowers. Show them theirs.
01

Experience you can use

I am a Loan Officer with First Coast Mortgage Funding, Personal NMLS #879436 and Company NMLS #1953441. My background includes mortgage servicing, origination, complex files, and 16 years working with manufactured-home repos and foreclosures.

How I work

The right mortgage starts with an honest conversation about your goals, payment, cash, property, and timing.

  • Educate before selling
  • Recommend the right loan, not just any loan
  • Be direct when the answer is difficult
  • Communicate quickly and consistently
  • Guide you all the way to closing
03

What I know best

I help first-time buyers, veterans, military families, investors, and borrowers with complicated credit, income, construction, or property scenarios.

  • Conventional, VA, FHA, USDA, and jumbo
  • Down payment assistance
  • Construction and manufactured homes
  • Self-employed and bank statement loans
  • DSCR, investor, renovation, and refinance options
04

Ready when you are

Tell me what you want to accomplish. I will explain the numbers, lay out your options, and help you choose the smartest next step.
