I began my career as a real estate paralegal many years ago and remained in the field for 16 years. I worked at several law firms in the Hartford area. My main concentration was residential real estate transactions. In 2002, I became a mortgage loan officer. I enjoy working with first time home buyers. There is nothing more satisfying and exciting than assisting buyers purchasing their first home. My expertise is with affordable mortgage programs and with buyers who have low-to-moderate incomes or purchasing homes located in low-to-moderate census tracts. I also teach home buyer education classes organized by local non-profit agencies.
