With more than 15 years of experience across financial services and brokerage firms, I've developed comprehensive expertise in banking products and services, investment strategies, and portfolio management. My professional journey has taken me through equity trading, fixed income markets, commodities, and foreign exchange. Throughout my career, I've remained committed to serving individuals, families, and investors with tailored financial guidance.
I now channel this extensive financial knowledge into the mortgage industry, where I apply my analytical skills and client-focused philosophy to help families achieve their homeownership goals. My specialization includes assisting first-time homebuyers, facilitating refinancing solutions, working with self-employed professionals, and serving clients with non-traditional income structures, including foreign nationals.
My approach centers on financial education, customized strategy development, and creating a streamlined mortgage experience that gives clients both clarity and confidence. I provide expert guidance across all loan types – from government-backed options like FHA, VA, and USDA loans to conventional mortgages and specialized products including fix-and-flip financing and hard money loans.
What sets my service apart is a commitment that goes beyond just securing favorable mortgage terms. I emphasize transparent communication, proactive updates, and eliminating the stress typically associated with the mortgage process. My entrepreneurial spirit comes from firsthand experience as a small business owner and sales professional, giving me unique insight into the financial challenges my clients face.
Outside of finance
I'm passionate about cultural exploration and frequently travel with my family to experience new places, cuisines, and communities. I'm actively involved in youth sports as a volunteer coach at our local YMCA, currently working with 5–7-year-olds – including our championship-winning team from the Spring 2025 season.
My academic credentials
Include an MBA and BA, complemented by current and past financial industry licenses. I'm fully licensed as a Loan Officer in the District of Columbia, Maryland, North Carolina, and Virginia.
