Your Pre-Approval Is More Than a PDF • I believe a pre-approval should be a strategy session —not just paperwork. Whether you’re purchasing your first home, upgrading, relocation, or building an investment portfolio, you deserve guidance, transparency, and white-glove service at every price point. Buying a home is one of the biggest financial decisions of your life, and it’s important to work with someone who makes you feel seen, heard, and supported throughout the process.
Supporting the Military and First Responder Community • As the wife of a disabled veteran who served for 17 years, I understand both the personal and financial realities military families face. My mission is to bridge the gap between lender and the military community while helping fellow patriots maximize their VA Home Loan benefits. With gratitude and respect, I proudly serve our military members, veterans, first responders, law enforcement, healthcare workers, and their families, and continue to "pay it forward".
Homeownership Coaching & Mortgage Readiness • I enjoy helping renters take their first steps toward homeownership. From mortgage readiness coaching and credit improvement resources to down payment assistance strategies and closing cost solutions, I’m committed to helping you build long-term wealth through homeownership.

Kristen is originally from Maryland, and has called Palm Coast her home since 2004. She shares her love of life and adventure with her high school sweetheart Joe, two boys Jayden and Dominic and frenchie Luca! Exploring the world, cooking, gardening, animals, being with friends and spending time with her family are some of her favorite things.
My family is dedicated to supporting various national and local military initiatives for veterans and their families, and we are proud to support the community through these programs which I am happy to share with you.
My husband co-founded non-profit Hookin' Veterans (https://hookinveterans.org). Hookin’ Veterans brings injured Veterans from all over the United States together for a one of a kind offshore fishing experience. An old saying goes, “Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.” Our Veterans learn everything they need to know in order to take these skills home to their friends and families, giving them a hobby or new found passion they can then share with others. Our trips are designed to be fun, relaxing, and in some ways soothing to the soul. That being said, Hookin' Veterans is not about catching fish it’s about Heroes being remembered and Heroes being honored. This allows them to kindle new bonds with brothers in arms, giving them an experience they will remember forever. Catching fish is just a bonus.
