After serving as a retail banker for 12 years as well as a branch manager for three different banks, I became a mortgage originator in order to have a more positive impact on the lives of my clients. Helping someone buy their first home, or solidify their retirement with investment properties, are milestones I enjoy helping my borrowers achieve.

I joined American Pacific Mortgage because this company provides an elevated experience for everyone involved. APM has the product base and broker capabilities that allow access to products that sometimes other lenders do not offer, which allows us to make the dream of home-ownership a reality for more people. I truly appreciate that. The more a client knows, remembers, and trusts me and the company I represent, the more they appreciate the realtors and other partners I work with.

Raised in southern Washington, I lived for a period in Myrtle Point, Oregon, where I became active in Rotary, served as the Chamber of Commerce President for a time, and co-president of the Business Association. I purchased my first house in Portland in 2007, and have been an active real estate investor ever since. An athlete, I run 5k fun runs or obstacle course runs at least once a month, and actively train to participate in annual half and full Ironman competitions. I also enjoy backpacking, hiking, and camping.I love spending my spare time with my daughter, the most important person in my life. My real goal is to be able to be there for her as much as I can / she wants me to.
