I moved to the Coachella Valley in 2001 from WA state after graduating from the University of Washington and began my career as a mortgage lender then. I met my wife, Katie, here in the desert and we share two incredible children (our son Charlie and daughter Hayden). We enjoy traveling, hiking, and spending summers at the lake to escape the desert heat.


I have worked as a mortgage lender for nearly twenty years. The first 16 years were inside a real estate office of 100+ agents where I learned the importance of accountability and communication. I continue to enjoy helping every one of my clients to this day. And with the support of my team we hope to make your experience the very best possible.


As a dedicated refinance mortgage specialist, I focus on understanding your unique financial situation to find the best mortgage solution for you. My goal is to help you secure a loan that meets your needs and enhances your overall financial well-being.
