About Alina

I joined the mortgage industry in 1999 because I loved the homeownership process. Once I learned about the benefits of reverse mortgages, I was hooked! I chose to specialize in reverse mortgages in 2007 to provide clients safe access to housing wealth in retirement. I have a deep respect for the wisdom and experiences of our elders and enjoy the high-touch process of working with older homeowners, their families, and trusted advisors. My greatest satisfaction is the knowledge I've helped move a client closer to their financial goals, secure homeownership, and a comfortable retirement.

As a Certified Reverse Mortgage Professional, I’ve penned articles for several industry publications, including Reverse Mortgage Magazine and the National Reverse Mortgage Lenders Association. I’m a continuing education instructor for the Financial Planning Association and the Institute for Divorce Financial Analysts. Through my writing and teaching, I’m able to not only assist my clients but also help more people learn how to use home equity wisely in holistic retirement income planning.

I’m blessed to have two lovely daughters, two perfect dogs, and two finicky cats. We enjoy boating, watersports, and fostering dogs for a local rescue.

A woman holding her baby and exploring how refinancing mortgages could pay off debts

Owning a home is fun and fulfilling!

What’s not to love about having a space that is entirely yours? You can paint your bathroom fuchsia, have hardwood in the master, put up a wild Mosaic in the kitchen, install a smart thermostat, you name it. After all, it’s your home!

Equally enjoyable are the other personal and financial advantages of being a homeowner: security and stability, equity and wealth building, and more! I’m here to help you get the most from your home financing — whether you’re buying your first home, moving up or downsizing to match your lifestyle, or refinancing your current mortgage.

Helping your home financing process go smoothly.
