I am a seasoned Real Estate Professional with a comprehensive background in mortgage lending, brokerage management, and real estate sales spanning nearly three decades. My industry career began in 1996 as a VA loan agent with Mortgage Investors in St. Petersburg, Florida. After quickly establishing myself as a top producer, I expanded my expertise through advanced training at the Gold Coast School of Real Estate, qualifying as both a mortgage processor and a licensed broker. Driven by this foundation, I successfully launched and operated my own mortgage firm from 1998 through 2016, frequently partnering with premier institutions like First American Title to deliver seamless transactions. In 2016, I transitioned my operations to Georgia, obtaining my state real estate license while actively maintaining my Florida licensure. This dual-state presence allows me to serve clients seamlessly across regional markets. My lifelong passion for the industry began immediately after high school, gaining foundational exposure through contract roles with architecture, surveying, building, and title firms. Throughout my career, I have remained deeply passionate about client relations with a dedication reflected in a loyal professional network and client base that has trusted my work since 1998.
