While working on my Bachelor’s in Business Administration at Grand Canyon University, I began working at FirstBank as a teller and personal banker. Upon completion of my degree, I began my 6-month training as a Management Trainee and in February 2022 transitioned into a Banking Officer. Since 2022, I have focused on mortgage loans, home equity products, business loans, and commercial real estate. At First Bank, our ‘Banking for Good’ mission focuses on doing right by our customers, communities, and employees. This mission drives me to support our customers and community to help those in need, whether that be through our products or connecting them with a referral.

When I am not at the Bank, I enjoy going to midnight book releases with my friends, finding new trails to explore, and spending time with my family.
