After 25 years in the mortgage world, I've learned a few things. First, 'simple' and 'mortgage' don't always hang out together – but they can, and it's my job to make sure they do for you. Second, whether you're a first-time buyer nervously stepping into the market or a seasoned investor navigating a high-net-worth portfolio, everyone appreciates clear explanations and an advocate in their corner. That's where I come in, right here from my base in Madison, Wisconsin, excited to help fellow Wisconsinites achieve their homeownership dreams.


My journey wasn't entirely conventional. I started my career as a lawyer (yes, I've traded dusty warehouses filled with documents for, well, mostly electronic documents. Our technology is top tier). This background taught me the power of clear communication and meticulous attention to detail – skills I now use to ensure your interests are front and center. I genuinely believe in simplifying complex mortgage terms so you feel empowered, not overwhelmed.


For realtors, this means your clients are in capable hands, and you'll be kept well-informed every step of the way, leading to smoother transactions. For borrowers, it means you'll not only understand your options but also feel confident that you have a dedicated partner working tirelessly for your best outcome. If you're looking for someone who's serious about your mortgage but doesn't take himself too seriously, let's talk.


In my spare time, I run with the Movin' Shoes running club and am currently training for my 32nd marathon.
