Biography

I grew up in small town in Northern California, the town of Copperopolis. During high school I worked at a prestigious golf club where I learned the importance of customer service. Understanding the importance of customer service and building trust at a young age has helped me in every business venture I have taken and something I still hold to the highest degree.

After graduating high school I moved to Salt Lake City, Utah where I studied economics at the University of Utah. This is also where I met my beautiful wife, Melissa. While studying economics I gained a passion for the markets and what moved them.

In 2002, while in my sophomore year I began originating loans for Olympus Funding. Within a few months I was one of the top originators in the office and grew to love the mortgage business. In 2004, I started my own mortgage broker company. I managed and recruited loan officers while continuing to originate loans and grow the business.

In 2008, it became more apparent that to give my clients the best experience possible becoming a mortgage banker was a must. My team joined the ranks of Castle & Cooke Mortgage.

After moving to Arizona in 2009 I joined the top mortgage bank in Arizona, Academy Mortgage Corporation, home of the ten day close. Having everything local and under one roof was also a necessity in giving my clients the best experience. The team atmosphere at Academy is not like anything I have seen in the mortgage business and I am proud to be a part of it.

Currently I live in Gilbert, Arizona with my wife and 3 children. When not spending time with my family I enjoy playing golf, basketball, wakeboarding and spending time outdoors.

I still pride myself on customer service, trust and honesty. I enjoy staying up to date with the ever changing guidelines of the mortgage business…"knowledge is power." I also still love to watch the markets and learn about what affects interest rates and our economy.

In the end I find it easy to wake up every day and do what I do because… I LOVE MY JOB!
