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 B.A degree in Economics & Int'l Area Studies from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), and M.A. degree in Economics from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. I served in the Navy and was honorably discharged. I have been in the Business and Commercial Banking Industry for more than 15 years. My specific focus has been working with clients in the Commercial and Industrial space that are in the growth phase of the business cycle.

I'm an avid golfer and currently live in South Bay area with my wife and two little princesses.
