I am a Mortgage Banker and Branch Manager with Uplend, powered by VIP. I am a Phoenix native who has been in the mortgage industry for about 20 years. I enjoy coaching other Loan Officers and Real Estate agents and motivating others to their peak performance. My biggest challenge currently is a tough market, but I’m looking forward to the growth and change that comes from learning and pivoting during a downturn. I also really enjoy working with my brother, Jason, who is also on my team. I received by Bachelors from ASU.

When I’m not coaching for work, I love spending time with my 10 year-old son, Asher, and 7 year-old son, Grady, coaching their hockey teams and attending their school functions. I love being a witness to my 3 year-old daughter, Bliss, develop a love for dance, gymnastics and all things girly. My wife Kelsey and I will celebrate 18 years of marriage in June, and we are enjoying the small moments: family dinners, time with friends, and attending Scottsdale Bible Church. I enjoy working out and playing adult pick-up hockey whenever I have the chance as well. Asher being on the Junior Coyotes gives us the opportunity to travel together, and we are so grateful for all of the opportunities that living in the Valley offers our kids.  

Jeff Scheter, President of AzBL, introduced me to the group, and I was attracted to the leadership aspect. Learning to influence through leadership greatly interests me. I believe that leading is about educating oneself and influencing others by sharing that knowledge. I hope to learn and grow from top leaders across the Valley!
