About Me
With over 9 years in the mortgage industry, I have been helping buyers achieve the American Dream. My goal is to be a valuable resource when it comes to refinancing as well. I take pride in walking clients through the process in order to keep them involved and informed at all times. My background is diverse with experience in construction, real estate investing, and commercial finance.
My passion for business is based on a personal philosophy of helping people reach their financial goals. I thoroughly enjoy guiding homeowners and assisting them with their financial future. With years in the business, I have established many professional contacts and referral business partners, allowing my clients the benefit of those relationships.
I live in Camas, Washington. When I’m not busy with my career, you might find me on the golf course. I enjoy the outdoors by fishing, camping and hiking. I graduated from University of Arizona, with a Bachelor’s Degree in Finance.

Frequently Asked Questions
The total number of properties you may look at will depend on several factors, such as your budget and the housing availability in your area. In general, real estate agents recommend that homebuyers look at several properties before making a decision, but there is not an exact number. Most people look at 10 homes, at a minimum, so they can compare them. However, you may find the dream house with more or fewer searches.
When it comes to the best home buying tips, there are different ways to search for properties. Statistics from the National Association of REALTORS® reveal that 51 percent of buyers searched and found their homes on the internet, while 30 percent used real estate agents. Other ways to search for homes include asking friends, relatives, neighbors and homebuilders for help. A small percentage of homebuyers used newspaper advertisements and yard or open house signs to search for homes.
Although a pre-approval is not one of the required steps to buying a house, it can certainly help you stand out in a competitive market with many buyers. A pre-approval can show sellers that you’re serious and capable of getting a mortgage, so they may be more likely to accept your offer.
