Q. How can someone benefit from working with Flatwater Bank?
A. We try to make banking simple and will walk you through every step of the way for all the services we offer. At Flatwater Bank you are not just a number, we truly care about you and your financial well-being.
Q. We live in a digital world, but how can customers still benefit from working with a local loan officer?
A. The ability to sit face to face with a loan officer will always be the gold standard to me. At Flatwater Bank, relationships matter! Everyone on our team strives to foster that relationship each time we interact with you.
However, the world we live in is ever-changing and it is important to change with it! Working remotely is not only becoming more common, but also how many of our customers prefer to conduct their business. I am very experienced in working with customers 100% remotely and I’m confident that I can deliver the same customer experience and comprehensive service online. Our state-of-the-art banking technology has allowed me to lend mortgage loans to many customers out of state, without them ever having to step foot in the bank.

Q. What do you find most rewarding about your job as a loan officer?
