Based out of Des Moines, Iowa, I’ve been assisting clients with their home financing needs across the United States since 2012. Since 2015, I have been ranked nationally in the top 1% of lenders in volume funded and customer satisfaction ratings. I approach each customer as if they are my only customer—giving them the personal attention that has become the hallmark of Flagstar Bank.
In my spare time I enjoy traveling, both domestically and internationally, playing soccer, tennis, golf, skiing, and hanging out with my dog (a 7-year-old American Eskimo/Poodle mix) named Jax.

1Rate as of 9/22/2023 10:10 AM EDT. The APR calculation is based on a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage in the amount of $240,000 for the purchase of a single-family, primary residence with 80% loan-to-value (LTV) or 48,000% down payment, minimum borrower credit score of 740, and estimated points of 1% of the loan amount and origination fee of $1,295 with 360 monthly payments in the amount of $1,723. Payment amount does not include taxes and insurance which means your monthly obligation will be greater. Actual payment amount will vary based upon credit history, rates in effect at the time of consummation, LTV and other credit factors. A LTV ratio above 80% may result in a need for mortgage insurance. If mortgage insurance is required, the amount of your payment will increase. The APR is subject to change at any time prior to consummation, and individual APRs may vary for loan purchases and loan refinances due to loan programs being offered, loan volume, or other factors.
