In My Own Words
I studied cybersecurity before going into mortgage lending, and that training shaped how I work. Cybersecurity is about protecting what matters most and paying attention to the details other people overlook — and that's exactly what a mortgage deserves. Your financial information, your timeline, and the terms of your loan all get the same careful attention.
Over the past five years I've helped families across Idaho, Utah, and Wyoming get into homes, and I've learned that the best thing I can do is explain things clearly and tell you the truth. If a loan doesn't make sense for you, I'll say so. If there's a better option, I'll show you.
I'm married to the love of my life, and home is where everything important happens for us. When I'm not working, we're skiing, cycling, or traveling somewhere new — I've never met a mountain or a trail I didn't want to explore.
