Appraisal Review & Valuation Risk Consulting Services Experienced appraisal review professional with over 20 years of review experience, specializing in evaluating commercial and residential real estate appraisals for valuation credibility, regulatory compliance, and risk management for financial institutions. My background includes extensive work reviewing appraisal reports to ensure alignment with USPAP, FIRREA, and internal bank policies, while maintaining strict independence and professional standards. Services include independent commercial and residential appraisal reviews, regulatory compliance review (USPAP, FIRREA, banking guidance), valuation credibility and risk assessment, collateral and market analysis, review of income, DCF, sales comparison, and cost approaches, and appraisal policy and procedure development. I currently hold an Associate Real Estate Trainee Appraiser License and have completed 300 hours of qualifying education toward the Certified General license, along with 4,500 hours of review experience toward the AI-GRS designation. At this stage in my career, I am pursuing two opportunities: 1. Independent Appraisal Review Services I am available to provide independent appraisal review services for appraisal firms, lenders, or other organizations needing experienced review support. 2. Supervising Appraiser / Trainee Opportunity I am actively seeking a supervising appraiser who may be willing to take me on as a trainee so I can continue progressing toward my Certified General license while gaining field appraisal experience. Ideally, I would welcome the opportunity to both provide review services and work under a supervising appraiser, but I am also happy to provide review services independently for those who simply need experienced appraisal review support. If you or someone in your network may be interested in either opportunity, I would welcome the chance to connect.

My goal is to grow into a Certified General appraiser while contributing meaningful analytical support from day one. I bring a strong background in analytics, risk modeling, and structured communication from prior roles in advanced analytics and actuarial work.
