Get to know me

As a First Citizens commercial banker, it’s important to invest in understanding your business, strategies and key objectives. An established process and skilled team of specialists help me tailor solutions to fit you and your organization. Clients appreciate our trusted partnership in planning for long-term success.


I earned my Bachelor of Business Administration and Master of Business Administration from the University of New Mexico. I have been in the banking industry in New Mexico for nearly 20 years with a majority of that time spent in the Commercial Banking space focused on Treasury Management, CRE and Business Lending. I take a consultative approach with my clients. I enjoy learning about the business, processes, goals, and strategies to provide solutions to aide in the success of the business with the resources we provide.

I am a native New Mexican and care about our community and volunteer my time to improve it. I serve as Board Treasurer for Rural Housing, Inc., Board Member, Philanthropy and Finance Committee Member for the New Mexico Museum of Natural History Foundation, Outreach and Sponsorship Committee Member for CREW NM, and enjoy volunteering with Junior Achievement.

I invite you to connect with me on LinkedIn.
