More About Colleen
Hi! I am Colleen. During my career in mortgage lending, I have strived to build lasting relationships with my borrowers. Being able to service mortgage loans enables me to continue each relationship long after the loan closing. Financing your home is more than just a house. A home is where memories are made. It is not only about a single moment in time but about a lifetime.
When I am not working with my borrowers, I enjoy spending time with my husband, Brad, and our children, Lexie, Rylee, and Kayden. We spend as much time as possible together at the lake, boating, fishing, hunting, four-wheeling, and snowmobiling. We enjoy traveling and experiencing some of the wonders that the world has to offer.
