I pride myself on honesty and incorporate the highest ethical standards into every interaction with a client or colleague. Although my approach to matters is always shaped by practicality, I also embrace creative thinking and look for unexpected and innovative solutions. As the consumer finance landscape continues to evolve, from data privacy to state level regulation, I keep an eye out for new developments and novel ways we can help clients efficiently address emerging issues.
