About
I’ve been in the mortgage industry for over 25 years, but my path here was anything but traditional. I started my career as a professional wrestler in Dallas before moving into radio as a nationally syndicated talk show host covering sports and pop culture. It was during my time hosting a mortgage radio segment that I was offered an opportunity to enter the mortgage business—and I took the leap.
Today, I serve as both a Loan Officer and Loan Counselor, with a passion for helping people navigate one of the biggest financial decisions of their lives. Whether you’re buying your first home, refinancing to lower your monthly payment, or looking to tap into your home equity, my goal is simple: make the mortgage process as smooth, honest, and rewarding as possible.
I’m proud to be part of Success Lending, in partnership with eXp Realty, which allows me to serve clients across more than 30 states.
A Little About Me
I’m based in Lewisville, Texas, and when I’m not helping clients, you’ll probably find me doing something that keeps life interesting. I take my custom Star Wars-themed Dodge Chargers to local car shows and use them to support charitable causes. I also volunteer as a mobile DJ, a graphic artist, follow just about every sport imaginable, and consider myself a BBQ enthusiast who is still very much in training!
And yes, I’m a serious Star Wars collector.
Most importantly, I’m a family man. My wife and I have three amazing kids. One is a Doctor, another is a Percussion Director, and the third is a volleyball coach! We also share our home with four lovable rescue pups: Kona, Kahlua, Athena, and Zeus
At the end of the day, I love what I do because I get to help people accomplish something meaningful. If you’re looking to purchase a home, refinance, or explore your financing options, I’d be honored to be your mortgage resource and help you every step of the way.
I am currently licensed in the following states: AL, AZ, AR, CA, CO, CT, FL, GA, IL, IN, IA, KS, KY, MD, MI, MN, NH, NJ, NM, NC, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SD, TN, TX, VA, and WA

We used Wendy's services to buy a house a couple months ago. We were in a tough and competitive market, so having Wendy's expertise really helped us in the process.
Wendy is very knowledgeable, thorough, hard working, and dependable. She walked us through the process, gave us things we should be looking out for, and even helped point out certain flaws that we wouldn't have noticed on our own.
We ended up buying an incredible house in an amazing neighborhood in what was a very competitive bidding process. I'm sure the only reason we ended up as the winner is because of Wendy's business acumen through the bidding process. We couldn't be happier with the result!
I'm hoping we aren't moving anytime soon, but if we do, we'll definitely be using Wendy's services to both buy and sell.
Thanks for everything Wendy!!

I'm so thankful to have Wendy on my side. It can be nerve-wracking to hand over your client to another eXp agent in another state that you've never met or worked with before. She was the perfect choice and did an amazing job in selling the home. My client and her family were extremely happy with the job that Wendy did as her agent. She truly is the consummate professional that has skills to rival the best of the best out there! If you are in the Huntington Beach and surrounding areas in need of an awesome realtor, I would certainly recommend Wendy as an agent all day long!

We have worked with Wendy, as a realtor & property owner, for many years. She keeps up with the local real estate markets better than most of the real estate pro's we know (and there are many). With that knowledge she has an expertise in negotiating sales/purchases for her clients. Her responsiveness to inquiries is exceptional. She determines what a client is looking for, either as part of a sale or purchase, and moves towards those goals. She is dedicated to helping her clients get what they seek, or at least tries her hardest.

A few words to describe Wendy...persistence, hard working, integrity, trustable, patience, people-skill, funny...
Long story short, I got my dream home and am very happy all due to Wendy's determination to do her best to get the job done. Looking back, I'm still amazed how she was able to pull it off considering how difficult the situation was and also dealing with a very private seller. There were quite a few offers and somehow Wendy was able to connect with the seller and got us a huge advantage over others, we were able to have access to the property that none other buyers/agents were able to do, and that made the difference.
The whole time working with Wendy I never felt rush into making any questionable decisions, she kept reminding me to thoroughly go over the facts before committing. I was totally comfortable with and trusted her advice. She's not like some agents who just want their clients to buy/sell the property quickly so they can collect their commission and move on to the next one :).
I'd definitely without any hesitation refer Wendy to anyone who's in the market for a home.

I can't say enough good things about Wendy! If you're a new homebuyer with no clue about the terminology and processes in home buying, definitely give her a try. I started my search with Wendy a few years ago, but because I was in no hurry whatsoever to get a home, I was extremely picky and my budget didn't allow me to get what I wanted at the price I wanted. Fast forward to current time, after personally saving a bit more, we were finally able to find our dream home under budget!
Throughout the years, Wendy was always extremely patient with me and never rushed me to get a house just to get a house. She always made sure I was happy and would have enough reserve to be comfortable and I really appreciated that. When we finally found the right home, she was able to help close in just 25 days! We worked lock-step, hand-in-hand as we knocked out milestone by milestone in able to close without any issues. She was also very knowledgeable in recommendations for renovation/repairs, lenders, and insurance companies.
If you're looking for a can-do realtor to help you buy or sell a home, Wendy's the one to go to!

Wendy did a great job in helping to close a "short sale". As many people know, short sales can be very difficult and require significant follow-up by the real estate agent. Because of Wendy's contacts, she was able to expedite approvals and get the short sale approved in the shortest amount of time.

Wendy was very professional, knowledgeable, thorough, honest, and a good communicator. She helped me close a 15-day escrow before the New Year. Thank you Wendy

Wendy is a bright professional who is detail-oriented and tenacious in completing every task by dotting every "i" and crossing every "t". She is a valued asset to every organization with whom she's worked, and I highly recommend her to any organization who is looking for a dynamic, bright professional like Wendy.
