I was born and raised in St. Louis, MO. My mother's father was in the Navy for his entire working career and both grandparents on my mother's side survived the Pearl Harbor attack. Needless to say men and women of the armed forces have always carried extra weight around our family. I moved to Columbia, MO to attend the University of Missouri where I graduated with honors from the College of Business. Out of college I accepted a job with a Fortune 500 company in the transportation industry where I worked in operations management. When the opportunity to transition into a career where I would be helping veterans on a daily basis arose I didn't have to think twice. I enjoy spending my free time outside hunting, fishing and training my dogs. I can always make time to talk with our active duty men and women as well as our veterans, so if you need some advice on a home loan, or just need an ear please reach out and give me a call.
