A Lending Professional with 16 years providing both SBA and conventional financing options. Expertise in SBA lending and processes, commercial credit underwriting, and asset-based lending. My experience has allowed me to develop skills and expertise in relationship management, risk management, credit analysis, and business growth strategies through various lending practices. Critical thinking, communication, commitment, and service are the key factors in my success. I believe “Knowledge is Power.” Learning and growing in the industry with each new business owner provides me the opportunity to assist businesses in achieving their own goals. I provide both financial and business knowledge to our customers at SouthStar Bank. The ability to provide someone with the resources and tools needed for their own success is a passion of mine. I believe in honesty, integrity and doing my best to provide clients and partners with the services they need and the knowledge to help them grow and develop as business owners and partners in their community. Relationships matter in both your personal and business life. When people work together for the greater common good, all things are possible.
