About Deanna

Originally from Connecticut, I relocated to southwest Florida three years ago with my husband and dogs. My passion is assisting people with their home financing goals. Whether it’s a home purchase or refinance, it starts with giving a guiding hand. I’ll provide clear communication that instills confidence you are making the right choices for your future. I offer a wide range of products, including conventional, jumbo, FHA, and VA. Together, we’ll walk through the steps of your home loan journey.

From pre-approval to closing and beyond, I’ll make sure you know what’s happening with your mortgage and answer your questions along the way. I look forward to providing you outstanding customer service and a personalized home financing experience.

Owning a home is fun and fulfilling!

What’s not to love about having a space that is entirely yours? You can paint your bathroom fuchsia, have hardwood in the master, put up a wild Mosaic in the kitchen, install a smart thermostat, you name it. After all, it’s your home!

Equally enjoyable are the other personal and financial advantages of being a homeowner: security and stability, equity and wealth building, and more! I’m here to help you get the most from your home financing — whether you’re buying your first home, moving up or downsizing to match your lifestyle, or refinancing your current mortgage.

Helping your home financing process go smoothly.
