ORIGINATING FOR
Loan Originator Assistant - Licensed
Branch NMLS #201482
I was born in Costa Rica but moved to the United States as a child with my family as my parents were hoping for a brighter future. I have lived on the Gulf Coast since 2001. I have my bachelor’s degree in political science from the University of Louisiana- Lafayette (Aiyee, Geaux Cajuns) and my Masters in Homeland Security from Tulane University. After a 5-year career in law enforcement, I made the change into mortgage and joined the DHI Mortgage family in 2022. I truly enjoy the complex nature of the mortgage industry. From assisting first time homebuyers to those looking to expand their real estate portfolio, every client is like family.
When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my husband and daughters. We relish visiting local festivals and fairs, the beach, and exploring wildlife in our beautiful nature parks. We enjoy our Sunday mornings at Jubilee Baptist Church. I am also an avid reader and paint any chance I get.
Thank you for visiting my page. I look forward to helping you achieve your homeownership goals.
