I have been in the mortgage industry for two decades and have been through every market imaginable. My education was in Finance and Accounting. Prior to joining Guaranteed Rate, I worked at another lender both as a President's Club Loan Officer and a Senior Director of Banking running a top team. The proudest moments of my career have always been winning awards for client service. While production awards and consistently being a top 1% originator is great, the customer service awards tell me that what I do for my clients truly makes a difference in their lives which is the most significant reason for me being in this business. That is precisely why I joined the Guaranteed Rate family in early 2018. We share the same values when it comes to putting the client first. Unfortunately, this can be a rare quality in this business. I like to get to know my clients to understand their goals and needs. Then I educate them on how all lenders qualify and price a mortgage and also review the pitfalls or red flags to look out for when shopping for a home loan. Finally, I either customize a loan program that meets or exceeds those needs or advise they are already in a good place with their mortgage. Unlike most loan officers, my goal isn't to "sell a loan" after an initial conversation. My goal is to become a trusted advisor for my clients whether that means moving forward with a loan or scheduling a mortgage review down the road if they are in a good place. Either way, I want to be the person they respect and trust with all of their home financing needs. This leads to referrals as well as repeat business which is what my business is built on. If you're looking for a caring, knowledgeable, experienced mortgage professional with 24/7 availability to advise you on your home financing, I'm your guy!

I entered into the mortgage industry about 13 years ago because I honestly just needed a job. I started in the closing department and was eager to learn more then I became a loan processor which I did for over 12 years. During my 12 years of processing mortgage loans, I had the opportunity to work on many loans for clients and learn a lot about the guidelines and the flow of how mortgage loans work. In October of 2015, I realized that there are so many clients who need my assistance that my true strength was to be a VP of Lending, which is when I became a full time VP of Lending.



I entered this business because I am very passionate about real-estate and it is my privilege to offer all my clients an excellent home buying experience regardless of the client's purchase price or income status. I love what I do and I work really hard to get my deals closed within the time frames expected. I have been a buyer, a seller and a landlord so I know the importance of every role in this industry and I do my best to offer excellent customer service to all my clients. I offer FHA, VA, Conventional, Jumbo AND Renovation Loans (FHA 203K and Home Style Renovation) and I also offer the Down Payment Assistant Programs available as well as IHDA and the City of Chicago Down Payment Assistance Program. I study guidelines and I am current on updates within the industry, which include guidelines changes.



I graduated from Chicago State University where I obtained my Bachelors in Finance. I obtained my MBA from Keller Graduate School of Management. I am also a graduate of Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Business.



I am a member of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority Inc. I am married and have two children. I love traveling to Las Vegas and Miami when I have free time. I was born and raised in Chicago, IL. I spend most of my time working and taking my son to baseball.
