ABOUT NEO


NEO is the Greek word for new.


Imagine a day when mortgage companies can no longer get away with just putting people into debt, but must equally focus on getting people out of debt and showing them how to leverage their home to maximize their wealth.


We believe successful homeowners – who have a plan to maximize their wealth and minimize their monthly expenses – make better neighbors and build stronger communities for us all.


We created the NEO Home Loans logo as a symbolic commitment to our relationship with you. We believe the closing of your home loan is where our relationship and guidance begin.


As your financial situation evolves and changes, we will be the constant guide you can count on. We aspire to become the most valuable person in your life when it comes to real estate and finance.


Ultimately, our success as a company is not measured by how many loans we do, but by how successful you become.




We look forward to being your guide on your homebuying and wealth-building journey!

Producing Branch Manager | NMLS 1031566

Establishing my services on the foundations of integrity and passion, I am a longstanding Mortgage Advisor who aims to make home financing fun, seamless, and cordial for everyone involved. As a certified professional who’s helped over 1,500 families, I bring with me an extensive 18+ year background involving the intricacies of financial literacy, client advocation, and tailored program matching. Even more, enjoy every moment of leveraging that dynamicity to ensure clients not just succeed, but feel 100% confident as they navigate this new, exciting chapter of their lives.


A little about myself, I come from a single-parent, blue-collar household in California, which ultimately became the catalyst for me to discover early on the true value of understanding financial literacy at the core level. With this as my base, I earned a BA in Political Science from UC Berkeley (cum laude) and soon stepped into the mortgage industry. Fast forward 18+ years, I have since become one of the top 1% of originators in the country, have helped over 1,500 families achieve the dream of homeownership and take pride in being able to prove that anyone can attain their own version of financial independence with a bit of education, support, and encouraging motivation.


From unlocking new homeownership opportunities to optimizing financial literacy, nothing makes me happier than delivering others the concierge service and financial freedom results they innately deserve. I have a genuine passion for seeing others win at building generational wealth and demonstrate that by not just being an advisor, but also a lifelong mentor and friend along the way. Because to me, loans are more than just transactions, which is why my goal is to ensure my clients attain rich, unbiased insights long-term that enable them to make the best educative decisions for themselves, their families, and their futures. All that, in conjunction with my keen understanding of mortgage guidelines, is what can solidify your confidence that your own financial journey will be nothing shy of positive, memorable, and of course, successful.
