      I have been the recipient of various regional customer service rewards. I profile new customers to make sure they are placed in appropriate products and guide customers through the entire loan process. In doing so, I consistently meet or beat sales targets in all key areas. I am licensed to sell fixed annuities in the state of MS and consistently beat my quarterly referral goals. As time allows, I also assist with other functions in the daily operations of the branch.
