These credentials reflect not only my expertise but also my unwavering commitment to serving clients with the highest level of professionalism.

Professional Journey

My leadership journey includes serving as Vice President at Wells Fargo Home Mortgage, where I was honored with multiple awards for outstanding leadership, operational excellence, and team performance.
