Evan Walker​

Senior Broker

NMLS #1398904
Company NMLS #2274018

Contact Evan

Evan Walker has been helping clients navigate the mortgage world since 2015, bringing years of experience and a problem-solving mindset to every loan he handles. Before becoming a broker, he worked in solution consulting at America’s largest mortgage company, giving him a deep understanding of how to structure loans that truly benefit his clients and solve for potential issues before they arise.

For Evan, the best part of his job is helping people achieve their dreams—whether that means buying their first home, refinancing for a better financial future, or simply creating more breathing room in their budget. He knows that homeownership is about more than just a mortgage; it’s about security, comfort, and building a better life.

When he’s not working hard for his clients, Evan enjoys spending time outdoors, whether it’s golfing, fishing, or hitting the slopes on his snowboard. Most of all, he loves quality time with his kids, making memories that matter both on and off the clock.

Sean Muscaro​

Senior Broker

Company NMLS #2274018

Contact Sean

Sean Muscaro got his start in the mortgage industry in 2016 as a loan processor before making the leap to loan officer—a move that allowed him to work more closely with clients and help them achieve their homeownership goals. Whether it’s guiding a first-time buyer or finding creative financial solutions through refinancing, Sean thrives on helping people save money so they can focus on what really matters in life.

A problem solver at heart, Sean’s favorite part of the job is finding smart, strategic ways to help clients improve their financial picture. He knows that every situation is unique, and he takes pride in crafting solutions that make a real difference in people’s lives.

When he’s not working on mortgages, you’ll probably find Sean deep in a great history book, catching a game (he’s a huge sports fan), or watching a film—because in addition to being a mortgage expert, he’s also a bit of a movie buff. Ask him what he’s been watching lately.

Corinne Walker

Senior Broker

NMLS #1333795

Contact Corinne

With over a decade in the mortgage industry, Corinne Walker brings experience, leadership, and a passion for helping people achieve their homeownership goals. Before joining Loan Garden, she held leadership roles at America’s largest mortgage company, sharpening her skills in strategy, problem-solving, and client advocacy.

Many clients come to Loan Garden looking for solutions—whether they’re stuck in a frustrating mortgage process with another lender or struggling to manage their bills. Corinne takes pride in stepping in, finding a way forward, and turning stressful situations into success stories.

She believes the mortgage process should be as enjoyable as it is rewarding, and she brings warmth, energy, and a sense of fun to every client interaction. A mortgage may be a means to an end but there is no reason it can’t be fun and exciting along the way. 

Outside of work, Corinne’s world revolves around her family. As a proud mother of two, she cherishes time spent with loved ones and understands the deep significance of finding the perfect home. Whether she’s helping clients or making memories with family and friends, Corinne approaches everything with heart and dedication.

Danielle Hardy​

Senior Broker

NMLS #1237803
Company NMLS #2274018

Contact Dani

Danielle Hardy jumped into the mortgage world in September 2014—just a week after her 23rd birthday—and hasn’t looked back since. From helping first-time homebuyers to guiding returning clients through refinances, she’s done it all. She even served as Vice President at two brokerages, leading recruiting, coaching, and marketing efforts.

What Danielle loves most about her job is the people. She knows the mortgage process can feel overwhelming, and she takes pride in making it as smooth (and even fun!) as possible. Whether it’s cracking a joke to lighten the mood or breaking down complex terms into plain English, she’s all about helping clients feel at ease.

Outside of work, Danielle is a creative soul. She has a love for photography, live music, and art, and she finds joy in caring for her plants. Lately, she’s been exploring a new passion – DJing Soul House Beats – so don’t be surprised if you catch her curating the perfect playlist when she’s not securing the perfect loan.

Scott Beal

Owner / Broker

NMLS #1011296
Company NMLS #2274018

Contact Scott

With over 15 years of experience and more than 3,000 successful mortgage closings, Scott has worked on just about any scenario you can imagine. If it’s first-time homebuyers taking their first step toward their dreams, military veterans securing the benefits they’ve earned, or investors making big moves, he’s made it his mission to fight for the best rates, terms, and experience for every client.

Loan Garden was founded based on Scott and Joe understanding that mortgages really help people. Whether we’re buying our first home, refinancing to save money or improve loan terms, investing in real estate, or handling an important legal matter, the end result is what we’re looking for. That means the process should be fast, simple, easy, and stress free so we can move on to what matters most in life.

When he’s not helping clients achieve their homeownership dreams, you’ll find Scott skiing, hiking, or spending time with friends, family, and his mischievous dog, Clifford. He knows firsthand how important it is to have time for the things that matter most, and he brings that same philosophy to his work—helping clients get through the mortgage process smoothly and easily so they can focus on their next big adventure.
