Ask Me About:

My new obsession with Pickleball

With a focus on connecting client needs with the right guidance and tools, I thrive on building productive long-term relationships.

Profile

Vice President and Senior Relationship Manager for the Arizona Market in Commercial Banking at Bank of America. In this capacity, my responsibilities include leading a team of specialists focused on understanding each client’s unique needs to deliver strategic financial guidance, solutions, and industry specific thought leadership. My mission is to help local companies thrive by achieving their business goals and provide resources to my clients to help them succeed in every aspect of their business and personal lives.  

Bringing 20+ years of experience, I joined Bank of America in 2019.  I bring a wealth of experience, spending the last 17 years in Commercial Banking and Relationship Management roles.  Throughout my banking career, I have served mid-sized companies to support their commercial banking needs.  Previous to my banking career, I spent 7 years on Active Duty in the United States Army and have a long lineage of Veterans in my family to include my son, father, brother, and both grandfathers, who served in WW2.  

To help create a more sustainable future for the companies and communities I serve, I volunteer with several not-for-profit organizations focused on veterans, high risk youth, and economic initiatives.  Additionally, I enjoy playing golf, pickleball, and travelling.  

Originally from Oxnard, California, I graduated with an MBA in Finance from California State University, Northridge and currently resides in Peoria, Arizona.
