Proudly serving clients across Virginia.

With over 20 years of experience in the mortgage industry, Kim brings deep knowledge, versatility, and a client-first mindset to every transaction.

In addition to her mortgage work, Kim is also a real estate investor. Her hands-on experience, trying different investment strategies has given her valuable insight she now shares with clients looking to grow their own real estate portfolios. Outside of her professional life, Kim is a proud basketball mom to her 12-year-old son, Cobi, who attends Jones Magnet Middle School in Hampton. He’s part of the accelerated education program and is equally dedicated to his studies and his work ethic on the basketball court.
