I was born and raised mainly in Arizona. My father’s job transferred him in 1984 and my family came to Barstow, California. I lived there until I graduated from high school. As a child, my mother had a pilot’s license and would often take us flying in small planes. I was so intrigued by the beauty of things from a different perspective that I knew that I would have a career around airplanes. Out of high school, I was hired at Alaska Airlines where I worked in various positions for 10 years. It afforded me the opportunity to travel and see much of the world that I otherwise would only read about in books. While working at the airlines, I met a loan officer on that asked me if I would be willing to work for him on a part-time basis. I accepted the position and quickly became a notary and delved into the mortgage world processing loans for him. After the stresses of 9/11 and the simultaneous death of my mother, I took early retirement from the airlines and worked full time in the mortgage business. From that time on I have seen 5000+ loans pass through my hands in one capacity or another. I also specialize in serving the senior community with reverse mortgage loans. I have helped thousands of people stay in their homes, cover medical expenses, or just to pay existing bills to live with a little less stress.

I’ve enjoyed all capacities and positions I have held over the years because they have enabled me to fulfill my most important job of all…being a MOM to my 4 sons: Luke 25, Zack 23, Cade 18, and Jake 16. I am continually blessed daily to see life through the eyes of children. I have a large extended family (just on one side of my family I am #25 of 36 grandchildren just in my generation) both locally and in Arizona. In my free time, I love bike riding at the beach, visiting friends and family, crafts, shopping, baseball, sports, EATING (love/hate relationship with food) and enjoying time with the LOVE of my life, Brad. We just recently got married and together our blended family brings 5 of his children (and his grandson) together with my children –making our family of 12 quite large but EXCITING! I have an amazing life and I am so blessed to be present in this world everyday.

I’ve seen both the tops of hills and the bottom of valleys in this topsy-turvy world of mortgage financing. In good times and in bad, I stand firm next to my loyal clients and business partners. It is my heart’s desire to see people’s lives changed through all types of different loan programs and I am in it for the long haul. Thank you for trusting me with your loan needs and I am continually blessed by all the referrals I receive from my clients!
