Get to know me

As a Commercial Relationship Manager, I am committed to building lasting partnerships by understanding my clients’ unique needs and delivering strategic financial solutions. With expertise in corporate lending, portfolio management, and credit structuring, I have successfully led and expanded banking initiatives, executed syndicated transactions, and advised clients across diverse industries.

Beyond managing client relationships, I have led teams overseeing large, complex portfolios and played a key role in underwriting and structuring sophisticated credit facilities. My combined experience in leadership and deal execution allows me to take a holistic approach, aligning financial strategies with long-term business growth.

I hold a B.A. in Finance from Zicklin School of Business at Baruch College and live in New Jersey with my husband and three daughters. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, baking dough-based treats, traveling to explore new cultures and cuisines, and immersing myself in a great book. I am also passionate about giving back to my community, actively supporting local initiatives, and staying involved in my church.
