I’m passionate about the mortgage business because I get the opportunity to meet so many interesting people and help them finance what is often the biggest investment of their lives.  I enjoy being their trusted advisor and helping them achieve financial success, whether it’s by purchasing or refinancing their own home or an investment property.  I pride myself in being available and responsive to my clients’ needs.

I’ve been happily working with borrowers since 2001, and I was a realtor for eleven years before then. That combination allows me to be a resource to the realtors I work with, and I especially enjoy training and coaching new agents.

My husband, Jim, and I have two grown sons – Leland, an experienced home builder in Portland, and Halsey, a rescue helicopter pilot in San Antonio.  I’ve ridden horses all of my life—a passion my husband supports from a distance! Together we love camping, boating, biking, travelling, hiking and cooking.
