    ABOUT ME

    Why did you choose a career in the mortgage industry?
    My parents were real estate brokers in Indiana, so I knew firsthand how challenging and frustrating the mortgage process could be; and I wanted to take an active part in relieving the stress that buyers, sellers, realtors, and title companies face when taking this journey. I endeavor to be the knowledgeable, supportive, and kind cruise director that does everything possible to make the process smooth and enjoyable. Although I can't promise difficulties along the way, I CAN promise that my buyers and realtors will still like me afterwards!!
    What do you enjoy most about your work?
    Too many loan officers treat their buyers and realtors like they're in a factory: one size fits all and they get what they get without understanding the process or having any control over their own experience. I love taking the time to build relationships with my realtors and buyers so that they feel comfortable asking me anything. In fact, not only do I generally offer several options, but I also educate buyers on the differences so that they feel confident in saying, "I pick that one" and understand why they chose that option. I am a teacher at heart, so I live for the moment when the light goes on and the buyer says, "NOW I understand it!!" I want my buyers to feel confident but supported during their mortgage process.
    What are 3 words past clients would use to describe you?
    I strive every day for the words "kind," "subject matter expert," and "trustworthy" being the words customers and realtors use to describe me!
    What excites you most about life?
    When I can make someone feel better about their situation or offer support through tough times, I am the happiest! I love that everyday we have the opportunity to bump into someone that can become a close friend, mentor, trusted business partner, or at least a friendly face at an event.
    How do you give back to your community?
    For 15 years (10 with my son!), I volunteered in animal rescue, including going to North Florida for the last leg of the "Freedom Rides," and taking adoptable animals to pet stores, craft fairs, and events to search out their forever homes. By using high school students as helpers, I helped them get the community service hours they needed.
    How do you enjoy spending your free time?
    On nice days you can find me at an amusement park with my family or friends, and on dreary days, you may find me outside under the cover of my lanai engrossed in a book.
    What quote motivates and inspires you?
    Although it's not by anyone famous, my 22-year-old has said since he was little that he "chooses to be happy" when anyone asked how he felt. I find myself repeating those words when life gets challenging or depressing. It reminds me to focus on the positive instead of letting negativity get me down.
    What's the best movie of all time?
    It's really tough to narrow this one down; however, recently I watched The Arrival with Amy Adams and Jeremy Renner. This movie stands out because of the message I found in it that even though there may be excruciating pain in your future, the joys you will experience make it worth the pain.
