My background consists of over 5 years of mortgage experience.3 years as a loan officer with a national broker.2 years of with a national lender, in the appraisal review department.In the last year I have decided to get into the appraisal business, as an account executive for a national appraisal company, which I am finding is a great way to stay connected within the mortgage business.Before my career in appraisal/mortgage , I attended Salem State college in which I received a degree in Liberal Studies.
