I am not just your mortgage loan officer. I am your hype squad, strategy partner, and probably Spotify’s top Noah Kahan listener. I treat every homebuyer journey like a mixtape, personalized, full of good vibes, and just the right amount of chaos in a "this could be the best thing ever" kind of way.

I specialize in helping homeowners with a wide range of credit scores and financial situations find refinance solutions that actually work. My focus goes beyond simply replacing your loan. I look for ways to reduce costs through better terms, available programs, and lender options that can free up your monthly budget and make your financial path smoother.

Whether you are ready to refinance or just exploring, I am all in. I believe everyone deserves a clear plan, and I love helping build that path forward. I might also send you a few GIFs along the way.

Let’s make homeownership more affordable.

How much does a refinance cost?
Refinance costs vary by loan type, but many clients roll them into the loan or reduce them through lender credits. We help you understand the total picture upfront so there are no surprises.

Do I need perfect credit to refinance?
Not at all. There are programs for a wide range of credit scores. In Utah, we often help clients refinance even if they were denied elsewhere.

Can I refinance if I don’t have much equity?
Possibly. We evaluate loan-to-value ratios and help find creative options even for homes with limited equity. Your local market and recent value shifts may work in your favor.

Is now a good time to refinance?
It depends on your current interest rate and goals. Sometimes we find better terms, other times it makes sense to wait. We offer a no-pressure review so you can make the best call.

What if I just bought my home?
If your rate was high or your credit has improved, a refinance might still be worth considering. We help you evaluate the potential savings.

Can I skip a month's payment when I refinance?
Yes. In most refinance scenarios, you can skip one monthly mortgage payment during the process. This is due to how interest is calculated on the new loan and when the first payment is due. We will explain the timeline so you know exactly what to expect.
