Originally from California, the place I call home is in Idaho; I graduated from California Polytechnic State University where I received a B.S. in Business Administration with a concentration in Marketing. Early in my career I was in market research which I found very rewarding and fun while working on-site at Dreyer’s ice cream. After moving to Idaho I ran my own business for five years before taking the plunge into the exciting and challenging mortgage industry. I can honestly say “I love my job.” It is always moving and allowing me to problem solve to the best of my abilities. There are regulatory changes around every corner, new clients to meet while always navigating the loan process. I enjoy the privilege of working with like-minded realtors with the same standard of excellence that I set for myself every day!
My end goal for all my clients is that you have a deep level of trust in our relationship allowing you to enthusiastically recommend me to your friends and family. It is the best form of a compliment you can provide.

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.
