I believe every individual within the title industry ought to pursue this designation. It provides opportunities to become more well-rounded and proficient in their role, and it demonstrates their professional commitment to the industry.

I enjoy working with my team to create an outstanding customer experience for those individuals we have the opportunity to serve. Being a memorable part of a buyer or seller’s dream is incredibly rewarding.

Tell us something that others in the industry may not know about you.

I love to create things with my hands. My mental outlet is woodworking. The smell of freshly milled wood along with the satisfaction of taking an idea and forming it into something tangible and that other people enjoy is incredibly satisfying.
