I became part of Hanover Mortgage in 2019. I had always wanted to return to work outside the home when my youngest children (twins!) started full time school. My background is in the non-profit sector, so you may wonder how I ended up here. When my husband and I moved back to Greenville in 2013 after a brief stint in Atlanta, we had trouble qualifying for a mortgage. We had the income, assets, and credit scores, but because my husband was primarily in a commission job, we looked risky on paper. I can remember—even 7 years later—how stressful that process was on me and my husband. We just wanted to have someone believe in us, find a house we loved, and be settled. Yes, there were tears, and no, I’m not prone to drama! It took a personal encounter with a caring loan officer who listened to and cared for us. That made all the difference. Now, I get to be a part of that process for other homebuyers, making their mortgage experience the best it can be.

I love this company and leadership, what we stand for, and how we treat people. Those qualities will weather any storm or crisis. I’m part of our Support Staff and President of the PPC (Party Planning Committee). Plus, I get to post a small glimpse of Hanover Happenings on our Instagram page, so please follow us at @hanovermortgageco!

The other part of my life is that I was born and raised in the sweet state of Georgia. I’m married to Brian, and I’m the mom of 4 very active, but very cute kids. We got a much asked for puppy right at the beginning of the COVID crisis, and he has been the best therapy for our family!
