I have known Kathy for twenty years. I have worked with her at multiple servicing companies and she has always been a consummate professional and was one of the best. I highly recommend her.

Joseph Mazzei Sr.

I have worked with Kathy on several consulting projects and it is my pleasure to recommend her as a consultant or full time employee. She has proven to be reliable and a self motivator . She has in depth knowledge within the mortgage industry and is an asset to any organization. I would welcome an opportunity to work with her again in the future.
