Our team
Better people make better lending
We lend billions of dollars to commercial real estate projects every year. But it’s not just capital that distinguishes us. It’s the empowered nature of our workforce. Our advisors are experienced experts whose sole focus is to deliver financing
strategies that enable you to achieve greater success.
Our Better Lending culture – three decades in the making – is built on the skill that comes from pure mortgage lending. Because we start from a position of knowledge about you, your project, and your market, we can design solutions that
are fit for your purpose. And because accountability is in our nature, we meet our commitments.
Better by design, better by nature, better for you in every corner of the country.

Relationships. Experience. Collaboration.
“I add value by sharing my in-depth knowledge, gained from 18 years working at CMHC.”
Isabelle joined the First National team in July 2015, after almost two decades at CMHC. She focuses on multi-family and commercial financing for new acquisitions, renewals and construction projects. With eight of her 18 years at CMHC spent in underwriting, Isabelle brings a unique knowledge to her clients. She puts relationships first, always looking for opportunities to collaborate with borrowers and exchange ideas with colleagues.
When she’s not adding value for First National borrowers, Isabelle partakes in sports including biking, camping, hiking and cross country skiing.
