I began my journey into the mortgage realm began back in 2012 during the HARP refinance frenzy. Starting as a Loan Processor, I quickly learned the importance of efficiency and precision, as the underwriting standards were exceptionally strict. This knowledge was carried along into Loan Origination when I obtained my license in 2014.
