About me

I grew up in the small town of Bridgeport, CA, nestled in the heart of the Eastern Sierras. After graduating high school, I dreamt of big city living. However, I felt Reno was the perfect “Biggest Little City” to plant roots and raise a family.

I don’t believe in coincidences and my journey into lending is no different. Growing up in a small community, I learned the value of hard work and the importance of relationships. Homeownership is an incredible tool that allows you to create memories and build wealth simultaneously. I have seen firsthand the transformative power of homeownership both personally and through the families I serve.

I would love nothing more than the opportunity to help you purchase a home so you can build the future of your dreams. Home means Nevada and I’m excited for it to be your home, too.
