About Me
After years of success in the banking industry, I had the honor to join the strong group of talented individuals at Team Powell. Ken Powell's team at Guild Mortgage has an established track record providing outstanding mortgage services here in Central Oregon. We bring a robust national portfolio of loan products to the local level here in Bend.
My business is built on the referrals of past clients and I love meeting new families who have been recommended by those I have helped in the past. Since my clients are family to me, I go above and beyond to make sure they are treated with the dignity and respect they deserve.I am committed to helping my clients secure the best loan for each individual situation and provide proactive, responsive communication throughout the loan process.
It's such a moving experience to watch my clients' goals and dreams come to fruition; to be there when they get the keys to their new home or at their signing for a refinance, and to watch the relief wash over them as they get the funds needed for important life events and lower payments. I work hard to ensure that all of my home financing transactions help families secure home ownership. Watching my community thrive as result of my passion for my job is what I live for.
When I'm not in the office I also enjoy hiking, snowmobiling, running, snowboarding, and spending time with my family & friends.

Meet my team

I work closely with my team of specialists to get you the financing you need. See what each member brings to the team.

I have enjoyed my last 30+ years in mortgage lending as consistently one of the top lenders in Deschutes County as well as the State of Oregon. I take helping you achieve your residential mortgage goals and financial goals very seriously, no matter the transaction price range. My experience and vast knowledge of the industry will be very beneficial to you and or your valuable referrals. I look forward to meeting with you personally and discussing your objectives.

Once you have determined the right loan, I will guide you through the next steps, keeping you in the loop on any documents needed so we can stay on track.

I assist your loan officer and can help you with any questions about your loan. Further on down the road, I’ll check in with all other parties on anything needed to keep things moving smoothly.

Look out for my calls! I’m here to make sure you’re always up-to-date on the latest with your loan process. I am not licensed as a loan originator.
