My team and I enjoy taking the time to explain information to our customers clearly so the process can be straightforward and accessible.

I studied Political Science and Business and have always been drawn to service-focused work. Over the years, I’ve remained active in the Scottsdale community through volunteer efforts, women’s leadership initiatives, and mentorship programs that focus on empowerment and growth. These experiences have shaped who I am and how I approach my work—with compassion, connection, and consistency.

Outside the office, I enjoy hiking our local trails, practicing yoga, and joining dance fusion classes when I can. My husband and I love spending our weekends with friends and community members. We often gather with others to reflect, support, and celebrate the good around us—it’s a part of who we are.
