I have a strong personal, as well as professional connection with the Sauk Valley Area. The foundation of my educational career started in Dixon Public Schools, and as a graduate of Dixon High School. I then moved on to Sauk Valley Community College for two years. I continued my education at Northern Illinois University, which culminated in a bachelor’s degree in communications.
After graduation, I started my Sales & Marketing career. This journey provided me opportunities with organizations such as Enterprise Rent-A-Car, L’Oreal USA, and Performance Food Group. My professional experience has been unique and rewarding. Working for large corporations gave me access to a great deal of resources. However, utilizing those resources to support small businesses was always my passion.
As a Commercial Loan Officer with Sterling Federal Bank, I have the privilege of sharing my knowledge with borrowers in the Sauk Valley, and surrounding area. My banking industry educational distinctions include Moody’s BLF & FALb Training, and completion of the IBA Center for Banking Excellence Commercial Lending School.
The Sauk Valley is where my wife and I have chosen to raise our family, and where much of my extended family lives and works. It is the highest honor to have a career helping friends and neighbors with their banking and lending needs.
