I believe in SERVICE above self. All things being equal, people will do business with, and refer business to, those people they know, like and trust. I consider myself a loan teacher first and a loan officer second. My job is to educate customers and provide STELLAR service.

One of the most important things I can do for my clients is to make their mortgage lending experience as comfortable and positive as possible. I help my clients with all real estate financing needs. From purchasing for a first-time buyer, real estate investor, refinancing to lower your interest rate or payments, or getting cash out for home improvements or consolidation, I have a vast array of products that can meet any of your needs.

Growing up as an athlete, I learned the benefits that come from coaching and working as a team. From the very start of my mortgage career in 1991, I have applied those benefits by coaching clients from start to finish. I am here as your advocate with honest guidance and fully educated answers, I do this by bringing a high level of trust and professionalism to every transaction whether it is for a first-time home buyer or a returning real estate investor. My goal is that you are a happy and satisfied borrower.

As a native Oregonian, I grew up in Portland graduating from Cleveland High School and then received my degree from Linfield College in Psychology and Business. When I'm not working, my wife Tonya and I love to travel, go wine tasting, see live music, or relax at home.

Please call or email me for a no cost, no commitment consultation. I have the experience, local market knowledge, professional resources, and client focus to ensure that your lending experience with us is comfortable and positive, as it should be.
