Bio 

If you're in WA state and you're looking for a VA Loan, I'm your guy! A lot of lenders offer VA Loans, but not a lot of lenders spent years of their life in Iraq with you. I hope my small contribution to the men & women of the US Military will help earn your business. On a personal note, nothing has ever made me so proud as the years I got to work alongside you folks in Iraq. Thank you.
