About me

I was born and raised in Columbia, SC and am extremely proud to call this home. I am passionate about all things South Carolina, particularly our beaches and University of South Carolina Gamecocks (BA, '02). With more than 16 years of mortgage lending experience I am eager to demonstrate what Guild Mortgage Company in Columbia, SC has to offer.

The family approach to doing business is what sets Guild apart from other mortgage lenders and banks. Our team works, collaborates, and wins together. The opportunity to help someone realize the dream of homeownership is not something we take lightly and if given that opportunity, you will see the care we provide through our local underwriting, processing, and closing teams. With sales and operations working cohesively as a team, we're able to approve more loans and help our referral partners more effectively strategize unique scenarios. Our end goal is pretty simple: We want to do our jobs right the first time and close our transactions on-time (if not ahead of time). Guild is the right place to accomplish that goal and we're eager to partner with you.

Thank you so much for your trust and partnership!

Mark was fantastic! Always prompt to answer any questions. He took alot of time to make sure I understood everything! He made his time match mine to accomodate my work schedule which was above and beyond my expectations. His estimates for the closing costs were spot on. I would not hesitate to do another loan or refinance thru Guild if Mark was the loan officer!

Mark was very informative and kept me up to date on the other side of the transaction along the way. Very refreshing on the listing side.

Mark was able to provide us with a great loan product that was comparable to other lenders I worked with for my previous clients. Mark provided exceptional customer service and I'll continue to keep Mark and Guild Mortgage on my short list of trusted local lenders!

Mark was able to provide us with a great loan product which was comparable to other lenders I worked with for my clients. My partner was thankful to know our loan wasn't going to be sold to another financial institution and Mark provided exceptional customer service that can't be beat. I'll continue to keep Mark and Guild Mortgage on my short list of trusted local lenders!
