Get to know me
At First Citizens, our SBA Business Development Officers partner with you to deliver tailored financing solutions for your growing business’s short- and long-term needs. With decades of experience working with multiple markets and industries, we’re dedicated to navigating you through every touchpoint of the SBA’s 7a and 504 loan options.
Our approach simplifies the SBA loan process for our borrowers, whether you're starting a business, acquiring one or expanding your existing operations. We pride ourselves on working with you to deliver the capital needed to bring your business positive results.
I have been actively involved in SBA lending since 1999 where I started out as an underwriter. I am passionate about working with entrepreneurs and small business owners because they are the true engine that drives the economy, as well as the largest employer as a whole in this country. I was born in Taiwan but grew up in Panama before coming to Texas for college. Besides English, I also speak Mandarin Chinese and Spanish. My husband and I have been married for 25 years and are proud parents of two rescued cats. We both love traveling and adventure hiking. Our goal is to visit a new country every year and learn different cultures and traditions.
