About Me

Be Admired.

My path to mortgage operations wasn’t a straight line — and that’s exactly what makes me effective. A clinical foundation in nursing, advanced training in public health, and a legal background through paralegal practice gave me a rare combination of analytical rigor, regulatory awareness, and people-first leadership.

As Operations Manager at Lendmire, I work behind the scenes so our Mortgage Originators can serve every borrower with the support and precision they deserve. Healthcare taught me what’s at stake in high-stakes environments. Legal training sharpened my eye for compliance and risk. I bring all of that to the table to keep complex processes running clean — and the standards our clients and team expect held high.

Outside of work, I serve as a sorority advisor for Kappa Alpha Theta at the University of Alabama and am a proud mom to two adult children. When I’m not keeping operations on track, you’ll likely find me at the mahjong table or working on my latest needlepoint project.

What I Do at Lendmire

The work that holds it all together.

Three principles that shape how I run operations — and what they mean for the team and the borrowers we serve.

01 · My Approach

Healthcare-grade precision.

Years in clinical nursing taught me what’s at stake when details are wrong. I bring that same discipline to every loan file we touch — double-checking, documenting, and catching issues before they reach a closing table.

02 · What It Means for You

A loan team that doesn’t drop the ball.

Operations is the reason a loan closes on time, paperwork stays organized, and surprises get caught early. That’s my job — and the reason your originator can stay focused on what matters most: serving you.

03 · Behind the Scenes

From paperwork to closing.

My job is to make sure your loan officer can focus 100% on serving you — while I keep the process running clean behind the scenes. Compliance, coordination, communication — the quiet work that makes every closing feel effortless.

Client Experiences

Behind every review, a process that worked.

I don’t sit at the closing table — but I help build the process that gets people there. Here’s what Lendmire clients are saying about the team.
