About the Shield Lending Team
Jimmy Everetts, Senior Loan Officer
Jimmy is a former Naval Submariner and a veteran of the Gulf War, serving from 1996-2004 as well as three tours in the Persian Gulf. Following his time in the Navy, he worked in broadcast journalism for several years as a backpack reporter, and all in one reporter/cameraman/editor. Growing tired of the wear and tear of journalism, Jimmy moved back to Denver, Colorado where he was born and raised, and eventually made his way into the world of mortgage lending in 2018. He has been honored to work with hundreds of families on the purchase or refinance of their homes and enjoys the relationships built along the way.
Jimmy married the love of his life, Neymar, in 2022 and, and in July of 2023 they welcomed their daughter, Venecia Everetts into the world. Their family is completed with two amazing dogs, Butkus and Mozzy, and both child and dogs love their mother… but know dad is the best (please don’t tell her I said that). Ha-Ha.
