As of this year, I have been in the mortgage business for 30 years. I have always had a passion for first time home buyers who then become my repeat customers. Over the years I have won accolades from MHFA and have sat on their lender committee at different times. I always meet my clients face to face as I believe that this is a relationship, not a job. Some of my clients I continue to keep in touch with as times goes by and try to always reach out at the holidays. I have gone to college more than once and have worked in a customer relation industry most of my life although my last focus was on teaching. I have a love of traveling internationally, gardening in the summer, motorcycles and cooking. I often use my co-workers as taste testers for new recipes that I alter or create.

Buying a house is one of the largest financial decisions one will make in their lifetime and I don't take that lightly .

I remain active in every file to assure as smooth process and to let my customers know that I am available anytime to answer their questions and more importantly that I truly care..  
I am passionate about education and believe that the more my customer know about the process, loan programs, rates and fees the more confident they will be in their decisions.
