I would have to attribute my career in financial services to happenstance and good fortune! My brother worked for a small company as a mortgage broker and then as an underwriter, and it was he who suggested I try my hand in mortgages, so I did and I loved it. I have been in Financial Services in Mortgages for 10 years, five of which have been with Axiom Financial.

I became a Licensed Loan Officer on both the Federal and State level and also took online courses.

My biggest challenge is being confident in what I know and not doubting myself.

Among my greatest strengths are my willingness to help whenever and wherever I am needed and my ability to work with a team.

My greatest accomplishment is my daughter.

It was just this year that I got my license, and along with my partner, we have grown our business significantly. With that said, my goal is to continue to build my business and to continue working toward being the best in the business. The end goal is to establish ourselves as the "go-to" for VA loans. I also want to travel more! You know the old saying, "work hard, play hard"? - That's my goal.

My family and my clients are my greatest sources of inspiration. I want to be the best I can for them and do as much as I can for them.

I want to be remembered as helping others in many different ways and integrating charitable work and volunteering.
