I was raised on my family’s cattle ranch in Central Texas, where I learned the value of hard work, responsibility, and family. After a long career at SLB Schlumberger, including roles as VP of Global Accounts and VP of Global Sales, I transitioned into the mortgage industry in 2020 and joined Laraby Financial Group. I currently lead our Waco, TX branch and hold my Certified Mortgage Advisor (CMA) designation. Since joining, I’ve grown my production to over $38M, expanded my team, and helped drive sustainable growth, even as the market contracted. I’m fluent in English and Spanish, passionate about building lasting relationships, and always up for a challenge. My wife Tara and I have two wonderful daughters, and we spend as much time as we can outdoors, on the slopes in the winter and at the beach in the summer.
Whether you are buying a home or refinancing your current mortgage, you deserve a smooth transaction. I am experienced with all types of residential loans. I work with first time home buyers, investors, Veterans, clients needing jumbo loans, as well as looking at the benefits of a refinance for my clients. When applying for a loan, you need a Loan Officer you can rely on. It is important to work with an individual who has your best interests in mind. I am dedicated to helping you achieve your goals. I will make sure you understand all your options and help you pick the best loan to meet your needs. A mortgage is one of the most important financial decisions you will make. I will guide you through this process, every step of the way.
