Kristy Lingerfelt came to the team in August 2021 as the Loan Officer Assistant for the office. Her previous experience as a Mortgage Planning Professional brings a wealth of knowledge to the team in planning and preparing documentation for clients, and assisting them as we develop financial plans to meet their current and future needs. Kristy and her husband, Rob, have three children who keep them busy and running with multiple sports interests. When they are at home, they take care of their rescue dogs and when they do find spare time, they love to travel together.
