I am a St. Petersburg, FL native and a proud alumnus of the University of South Florida, St. Petersburg, where I earned my BS in Finance. Over the past nine years, I have dedicated my career to the SBA sector, spending six years as an underwriter and the last three as an SBA Lender.

My experience spans diverse industries and loan sizes, from small loans of $150,000–$350,000 up to complex financing projects of $5,000,000. My underwriting background provided a deep understanding of business cash flow and operating cycles, enabling me to identify key questions early to proactively address potential issues. Outside of my professional life, I enjoy staying active at the gym and running, but I am most passionate about spending time with my two sons (ages 6 and 4) and watching them play baseball and football.
