Growing up as an Army Brat, I lived in 15 different places before settling down. At Delta State University, I excelled both in the classroom and in the pool, earning three Academic Conference All-American titles as a swimmer on a teaching scholarship. After college, I continued my education while teaching and working towards my Master’s at the University of Mississippi.

After reconnecting with a military-dependent school teaching Personal Finance, I decided to take my love of finance to California, where I get the chance to help individuals navigate the complexities of homeownership, empowering them to achieve their financial dreams. Outside of work, I enjoy staying active with daily runs, spending time with my furry friends, and indulging in the simple pleasures of music, travel, and of course, a good cup of coffee or chocolate.
