Additional Information

I began my career in banking at the Bank of Ringgold, now BOM. I have been in Financial Services all of my career except for the last years I spent in the Insurance Industry. Any gaps in my employment were due to Medical Issues with my late husband. I no longer carry any of my Industry Licenses and Registration.

I am interested in working close to home in an industry I love.

Thank you for your consideration.
