As a home loan expert serving Tampa, Riverview, Brandon, and surrounding towns throughout the Greater Tampa Bay region, Lisa specializes in simplifying complex financing and helping clients reach their financial goals without the stress often associated with the mortgage process.

Before joining Embrace Home Loans, Lisa spent years at Churchill Mortgage building a reputation for listening closely, structuring smart solutions, and educating borrowers in ways that make the mortgage process feel approachable, not overwhelming. She chose Embrace because its culture, pricing, technology, and client-first philosophy align with her commitment to doing what is right for the borrower every time.

The expanded product suite at Embrace gives Lisa’s clients a real advantage. She offers creative financing and strategies designed to strengthen purchasing power and reduce monthly payments. This includes Down Payment Assistance, FHA, VA, Conventional, Jumbo, bank statement loans, investor-focused solutions,1099 loans, ITIN loans, and non-conforming options.

She is a former board member and active supporter of The Angel Foundation FL, which serves families facing life-threatening illness or catastrophic events.

Originally from Hamburg, New York, Lisa now calls the Tampa Bay area her home base — though she and her husband frequently travel the country in their RV to meet with clients, real estate partners, friends, and family. She is the proud mom of three adult sons and a bonus daughter. Outside of lending, Lisa enjoys pickleball, comedy, scuba diving, Renaissance festivals, bluegrass music, volunteering, and connecting with people wherever she goes.

Her perfect day unfolds with morning prayer and coffee shared with her husband, competitive pickleball, exploring her current surroundings, and unwinding around a campfire among close friends.
