    I've utilized Ladera for a previous loan and trust them. The discounts offered as a previous client made a big difference in the closing costs. I will continue to utilize Ladera in the future .

    About
    I was born and raised in Las Vegas. I have over 10 years of experience providing exceptional customer service. I strive to be as transparent and as informative as possible about the mortgage process. I focus on creating long term relationships with my clients. I enjoy evaluating my client’s financial position and custom-tailoring options that fit their specific needs. I got into the business because my mother lost her home during the Great Recession. That experience has inspired me to guide clients through these major life decisions with compassion, and it is fulfilling to know that what I’m doing has a real impact on clients' lives moving forward.
