PROBLEM SOLVER- There is a solution to every problem. I will find the solution whether I have to go around, under, over, or through the problem. I help people get from where they are to where they want to be. TRAINER- I have trained over 75 mortgage loan originators. In order to train one must have a degree of competence in the subject area. This is especially important in the mortgage industry because the regulatory environment is fluid. RESOURCE- I connect clients, family, and friends with the people and services they need to accomplish almost any goal. SERVE- I believe in the philosophy of "Givers Gain". Zig Ziglar put it best," You can have anything in this world that you want if you just help enough other people get what they want." Experience I have been originating loans since 1999. I was a Team Manager and Branch Manager at Countrywide where we prided ourselves on providing the absolute best loan program available for our clients. I have 21 years of professional sales experience. The professional salesperson always adds value to the process of evaluating products and services. Their focus is on building lifetime relationships with their clients through understanding the real issue or problem behind the search for products and services. The professional salesperson will help guide the client to the BEST solution, even it belongs to a competitor. Accomplishments I played baseball at American River Junior College and San Diego State University as a walk on. I was given the 1988 Spring scholar athlete award from Pepsi. I was asked to speak at the 2014 Men's Conference at Miestro Byznetza in Kliepeda, Lithuania. It was one of the highlights of my life. I live in Fair Oaks, Ca. with my wife, Regan, and my son. I love learning and teaching. I am the President of the Tri-County BNI chapter which meets in Folsom, Ca.
