Hi, I’m James, your local mortgage expert.
With over 15 years of experience in the financial industry and over 12 years at VACU, I have served in a variety of roles, including a Banker, Quality Assurance Consultant, and now as a Senior Mortgage Loan Officer. It has always been my goal to help our members achieve their financial dreams of home ownership. Purchasing or refinancing a home is one of the biggest investments you will make, so I enjoy being there to make sure it's a wonderful experience.
As a Richmond native, I love everything the area has to offer, such as the diversity, great seasonal weather, and community events. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with family, watching sports, supporting our community, and participating in credit union volunteer events.
