About Brian
My foundation in the mortgage industry is not a typical path for a mortgage loan officer. From 2012 to 2018, I was a mortgage underwriter where I reviewed our exception-level loans and trained other underwriters. I was then offered a position in Project Management to spearhead the underwriting design for a new originations platform. It made sense to take my underwriting background and knowledge over to the customer-facing side as a loan officer. This has yielded tremendous results for my customers and referral partners in the way of optimal loan structuring and seamless transactions. I strive to deliver a concierge-like experience with the key being quick and efficient communication to ensure all parties are educated and informed throughout the process.
I am thankful to be married to my best friend, Natalie, and together we are fortunate to be the parents of three beautiful girls (#girldad). I enjoy spending time with my family and improving on myself as a person/husband/father/friend each day. I love helping others which is why “work” is not really work for me since I am supporting people daily with major life decisions involving buying, building, renovating, or refinancing a home.
I appreciate the opportunity to assist you with a home purchase, refinance, or construction/renovation project.
