I first started working in the Financial Services Industry in 1997. Since then we have experienced many changes. Mortgage Lending can be very challenging if you are working with the wrong company. Our team has over 50 years combined experience in the Mortgage Industry so your clients are in great hands. Our #1 goal is a smooth, on time closing for everyone.
Originally from Wisconsin, I can say I really appreciate the sunny weather year around here in Florida. My wife and I have a young daughter so when I am not working we are busy going from soccer practice to dance class.

I started in the mortgage business with First Florida Financial in 2017. Prior to that, I was running a Plumbing & Electrical Company on Sanibel Island. I only moved to Cape Coral Florida in 2015 but before the big move we lived in Missouri and I was working as a Property Manager for the last 15-years. When not working, I enjoy time with my best friend and husband, family & friends, taking painting classes & being crafty, gardening, remodeling my home and hanging out in my pool with a Margarita!
