A passionate, assertive self-starter, I have generated record-breaking sales and revenue gains in

extremely competitive environments where drive, tenacity and a commitment to team success are critical

in exceeding both corporate/client expectations. I’ve managed high-profile clients, and my Quicken Loan

awards include:

■ VIP Perry’s Club (top ten in production out of 300 people)

■ Varsity Senior Banker Award (131 closings for $30.65M - Jan-Sept, 2011)

■ Recognition Club (23 closings for $4.8M - Dec. 2010)

■ Recognition Club (14 closings for $2.4M - Feb. 2011)

Often called “the closing shark,” I am frequently sought out to mentor, coach and develop others much

more senior than myself, based on my relationship-building skills and proven ability to gain client

commitments. My immensely successful career is supported by a BA in Communications from

Cleveland State University.
