My Story

My Story

I believe every successful mortgage experience is built on trust, clear communication, and genuine relationships. My goal is to provide responsive, honest guidance while ensuring every client feels informed, supported, and confident from our first conversation through to closing and beyond.

Having lived and worked in Newfoundland and Labrador my entire life, I have a strong connection to the communities I serve and a genuine understanding of what it means to call this province home. My local experience has also given me valuable insight into Newfoundland and Labrador's real estate market, its communities, and the unique opportunities and challenges that can come with buying, owning, and financing a home here.

As an Associate Mortgage Broker with the Leslie Penney Team at East Coast Mortgage Brokers, I'm committed to making the mortgage process straightforward, transparent, and tailored to each client's individual needs. Whether you're purchasing your first home, renewing an existing mortgage, refinancing, consolidating debt, or investing in real estate, I'm here to help you understand your options and make informed financial decisions with confidence.

When you work with me, you're not working with me alone. I'm supported by the collective knowledge and experience of the Leslie Penney Team — one of Newfoundland and Labrador's most respected mortgage teams. Together, we combine personalized, local service with decades of mortgage industry experience to help find the right solution for each client.

Community is an important part of who I am. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my two children, Norah and Kieran, and being involved in the local sports and arts communities that are such a big part of our lives. Between hockey, baseball, soccer and golf, along with music, dance and musical theatre, much of our time is spent at local rinks, fields, courses, studios and theatres. That involvement has given me an even greater appreciation for the people, families, organizations and volunteers that make our communities across Newfoundland and Labrador such special places to live.

I proudly serve clients throughout Newfoundland and Labrador, assisting with first-time homebuyer mortgages, renewals, refinancing, investment properties, pre-approvals, debt consolidation, self-employed mortgages, and home purchase financing.

My goal is simple: to be someone you can trust and easily reach when you have questions about your mortgage. I want every client to receive clear advice, responsive communication, and personal service — and to finish the mortgage process feeling informed, valued, and confident in the decisions they've made.

Core Values

What I Stand For

Trust

Every recommendation I make is in your best interest. I'm transparent about options, costs, and trade-offs so you can make decisions with confidence.

Communication

You'll never wonder what's happening with your mortgage. I keep you informed at every stage — no surprises, no jargon, just clear and honest updates.

Integrity

My Coast Guard career was built on doing the right thing under pressure. I bring that same standard to every client relationship and mortgage transaction.

Personalization

No two clients are the same. I take the time to understand your unique situation and find solutions that truly fit your life and financial goals.

Background

Leadership Forged at Sea

Nearly 20 years with the Canadian Coast Guard — including a decade as a Commanding Officer — taught me that leadership isn't about authority. It's about responsibility, clear communication, and making sound decisions when it matters most.

Those same principles guide how I work with every client. When you're navigating one of the most significant financial decisions of your life, you deserve someone who stays calm, thinks clearly, and always has your best interests at heart.
