In 2000 I moved from my hometown of Sayre Pennsylvania to Raleigh where I began my career as Mortgage Broker! After only 1 year as a loan officer I was recruited to manage a Durham based brokerage firm where he I was instrumental in growing that business from 6 employees to 60 in 4 different states. In 2004 I decided to open Triangle Lending Group.

As a loan officer I found my niche working with real estate investors & non conventional lending scenarios. I applied this knowledge of real estate investing personally both here in the Triangle and on the coast of North Carolina. Having the knowledge of lender, borrower, investor, home owner, buyer & seller has enabled me to pass on to clients and employees the best insight ensuring their best interest with every loan.

Outside of the office when I am not in Pennsylvania visiting my family I enjoy Golfing, Deep Sea Fishing, watching Penn State Football & the Carolina Hurricanes.

I have lived in the Raleigh area with my wife Maria for the past 12 1/2 years after moving from the northeast shortly after getting married in 1993. We had our first child, a daughter, 2 years ago and enjoy her everyday. In early 2005 I decided to make a career change and do something that would impact people�s lives. I chose to be a Loan Officer with Triangle Lending Group because I can reduce the stress of financial burden or help people realize their dream of homeownership.

Prior to becoming a Loan Officer I enjoyed a 20 year career in the wholesale food industry both owning and managing distribution companies. When I�m not working I enjoy spending quality time with my daughter, playing golf, Carolina Panthers football, and doing home improvement projects. We have recently moved from Raleigh to Wake Forest where my family and I are members of St. Catherine of Siena RCC in Wake Forest.

In 2000 I became a Loan Officer after spending 9 years in the Real Estate business. With that background and experience I fully understand the process that most of my clients go through and I feel this enables me to provide exactly what my customers are looking for; great customer service, a variety of products and timely closings. I�m not only at Triangle Lending Group to do loans, but to properly place clients into a mortgage that helps them meet their financial needs and goals.

When I�m away from the office I enjoy spending time with my wife and child at the beach usually sitting on the dock fishing with my 6 year old. I�m an avid golfer and also enjoying playing in a softball league but my main enjoyment away from work is raising my 6 year old who loves golf as well.

I moved to the Raleigh area a short time ago. I come from a company I was with for 12 years in the Pennington area of New Jersey. I have been a mortgage specialist for 13 years and am very excited to be able to help customers in North Carolina realize their dream of owning a home. I pride myself in making sure a customer is fitted with the best possible mortgage for their needs. The greatest compliment I receive is when a client refers me to a family member or friend. This means I have fulfilled my responsibility to a customer.

Outside of my work I enjoy all types of sports, but I love the time I spend with my family the most.

I joined triangle lending group in 2007 when I moved to North Carolina. Having two years of project management experience in IBM and other companies, I chose my career in the real estate financing area as a full-time loan officer. I believe in "service is my bussiness" and "building relationship is more important than doing a deal", so most of my current success comes from the quality service and referral of past clients.

Outside of work, I enjoying being a mom and telling stories to my lovely son, listening to his creative talk and blogging his grow-up. I also love travelling and camping with my husband and family, chating with friends, decorating my home, reading and music.

I look forward to working with you on your dream of homeownership and investment!
