Summary

She draws upon her prior experience as a corporate loan underwriter with JPMorgan Chase and U.S. Bank when discussing financial arrangements with her clients, and her clients benefit from her unique, insider’s perspective about borrower and lender needs.

She has also helped buyers and sellers negotiate equity-based purchases and transactions, including several eight- and nine-figure transactions.

She plays a large role in guiding local philanthropic initiatives as a board member of Give Back Cincinnati, and she also helps mentor rising business leaders as a participant in Xavier University’s Executive Mentor Program.
