I’m originally from North Pole, Alaska, but moved to Escanaba in 2010. Since moving to the area, I’ve grown to love the beauty of the UP. I’ve been in banking for 14 years, and with First Bank for about 10 years. I originate mortgages, personal and vehicle loans, as well as home equity lines of credit. I enjoy educating first time home buyers, but am also knowledgeable in VA and Rural Development loans. I look forward to working with you to help achieve your financial goals.

I hold certifications in banking and finance. I specialize in consumer lending, including mortgages, home equity loans, and installment loans. Additionally, I can assist with commercial loans.
Having worked in collections for several years at my previous employer, I find the most rewarding part of my job to be helping customers establish or rebuild their credit. I've learned that "bad things happen to good people," and I take the time to listen to each borrower's story. If they've faced credit issues in the past, and they are willing to improve their situation, I do my best to help them re-establish their credit.
