I started with my first Credit Union in 2002, holding numerous positions throughout the years. I have been with Preferred Credit Union as an Mortgage Loan Originator since March of 2021. I strive for top notch member service, which I think is the key in serving members. My goal is to make the process of obtaining a mortgage as easy as possible. As a certified Credit Union Financial Counselor, I can comfortably guide members though the process of obtaining a mortgage. Whether you are a first-time home buyer or someone that has had a previous mortgage I can provide solutions that may not have been a forethought.
Integrity is the key to any member service transaction, especially in Mortgages. I will be here to guide you through the biggest transaction of your life. I take a consultative approach to customizing your home loan. Any loan officer can get you a loan, I want to ensure you are getting the right loan for your specific needs.

Whether purchasing your first home, or refinancing a home, I will make certain to provide all options to help choose the best solution for your unique situation.
I am a dedicated mortgage professional that has a knowledge base in many areas when it comes to being a homeowner/homebuyer. I am a person that loves the challenges that each new loan brings. As a licensed loan officer for the state of Michigan, I have a unique knowledge base. I can offer a variety of custom loan programs that are designed to meet the needs of today’s modern family. I can honestly say that I love what I do and the satisfaction of being with a company that offers so many programs for individuals that would otherwise not qualify is endless.
