About me

Experienced Mortgage Loan Officer Helping First-Time Homebuyers and Credit-Challenged Clients in Southern New Hampshire.

With over 30 years of experience in the mortgage industry, I specialize in helping first-time homebuyers, families, and individuals with low or bruised credit achieve their dream of homeownership. As a trusted mortgage loan officer based in Bedford, NH, I offer personalized guidance through every step of the home loan process, from mortgage pre-approval to closing.

My background includes roles as an underwriter, processor, account manager, and closing manager, giving me a comprehensive understanding of home financing. I'm especially passionate about working with clients who need credit repair for home loans and those exploring FHA, VA, USDA, or conventional loan options.

I also collaborate closely with local real estate agents, offering training and support to help them grow their business and better serve our shared clients. Whether you're looking for down payment assistance, affordable mortgage solutions, or simply a knowledgeable partner to guide you, I'm here to help.

I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Economics with a minor in Sociology from the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Outside of work, I enjoy yoga, reading, fishing, tending to my chickens, and volunteering in the community. I proudly serve on the Board of Trustees for Family Promise of Southern New Hampshire.

Let's find the right home loan for you

We have loan options to fit every situation, from down payment assistance programs for first-time homebuyers to government-sponsored programs for military families and rural residents or jumbo loans in high-cost markets.

Down payment assistance

If you're purchasing your first home, you have options to buy without saving a full down payment. Down payment assistance (DPA) programs can help with your down payment in the form of a loan or grant that is often forgiven over time.

Lock and Shop

If you're searching for your next home in a competitive market, you can lock your loan and start shopping. You don't have to worry about rates rising because we've got you covered for 90 days. If rates go down, our one-time float down option provides the perfect solution. The rate is locked and secure, so you can search for a home you love.

Manufactured homes

Manufactured or CrossMod homes feel just like traditional, site-built homes. Fannie Mae's MH Advantage® or Freddie Mac's CHOICEHome programs create more flexible, affordable and innovative home options if you're interested in purchasing a custom manufactured home with the look and feel of a traditional home. These can include many of the same amenities like garages, car ports, porches, decks and more.

Bridge loans

If you've found the perfect new home but still need to sell your current one*, moving up can be easier than you think. You can buy quickly and avoid worrying about a contingent sale. Our short-term bridge loan for the down payment helps you transition seamlessly without missing out on the right home for your family.

All loans are subject to underwriter approval; terms and conditions may apply. Subject to change without notice.
