I was born and raised in the Piney Woods of East Texas and am proud to call the area “Home”. I am a graduate of Longview High School (Class of 2005) and Baylor University (Class of 2009). Upon receiving my degree and dabbling in the Banking and Oil and Gas industry, I quickly moved back to East Texas where I found my unexpected passion in March of 2013: Residential Mortgage.  

My father (a high school football coach) and mother (a 7th grade science teacher) instilled a set of “old-school” values in me that I believe are timeless. Doing the right thing was never an option, it was a requirement. If you weren’t early, you were late. If you started anything, you better finish it. I was raised to treat the janitor with the same respect as the CEO. I can still hear my father saying, “Son, if you’re going to fly with the owls at night, you better be ready to soar with the eagles in the morning.”  

Being in the business for nearly a decade, I’ve closed loans for people with great credit, not-so-great credit, lots of money, no money, and from your first-time homebuyers to your most seasoned investor. Chances are I’ve seen it and been able to get it closed! It gives me a great sense of fulfillment to be able to serve the community, that has given me so much, with their mortgage needs. I was voted one of the Best of East Texas in 2018, 2020 and 2021, Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs Top Loan Officer and a perineal “Locals Love Us” Award Winner.
