Get to know me
At First Citizens Capital Equipment Financing, I have a passion for providing capital equipment financing solutions structured to provide the best value to our customers and prospects. I have 25+ years of experience developing relationships with client leadership and stakeholders as a trusted partner and advisor. Utilizing my deep understanding of financial solution structures, tax and accounting rules, and capital utilization, I continually seek ways to enhance value for clients.
I graduated from University of Oregon where I earned a degree in Accounting and Finance. Sixteen years of my career was with General Electric Capital Corporation where I provided capital equipment financing and leasing solutions for a wide variety of customers in the Western US. When GE sold my business group to Well Fargo, I joined their Maritime Finance group providing vessel leasing and financing solutions to customers and prospects. I joined First Citizens Capital Equipment Financing in February 2022 as a Director, Business Development Officer.
My home is in Kirkland, Washington where I live with my Wife, Mary, and dog Sophie. We have three wonderful children. Our eldest daughter is in her Neurology Residency at Stonybrook Hospital in Long Island; our son works in the Environmental Safety Industry in the Puget Sound area; and our youngest daughter works in Commercial Real Estate in Seattle.
