What is something you are proud of and why?

I’m proud of the person I’ve become today. Life has taught me valuable lessons through both challenges and triumphs, and each experience has helped shape my character, perspective, and resilience. I carry those lessons with me and continue to grow from them.

I worked closely with members to guide them through the loan process, ensuring a smooth and personalized experience from application to closing.
