Director of Operations
My 35+ year career has given me many excellent opportunities. My early years I began as a loan officer in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. My family moved to Idaho in the mid 80’s when my father accepted a position as a Police Officer. My family is so important to me, and we always lived in the same town. In 2009 my grandson was born and I returned to San Diego. The last 11 years I have been doing pre-approvals & managing processing. Now I also train employees so they will learn more and finesse their skills. Helping others create more knowledge and opportunities in their personal careers. Patriot Home Loans has a strong family environment and I appreciate being a part of the team!
