How did you hear about UMassFive?
After several disappointments with a large bank, a work colleague suggested I reach out to UMassFive, and I have never looked back or second-guessed my decision. I’ve paid off two car loans (first loan ever in my name alone) and have my mortgage and equity loan through UMassFive!
What is your occupation?
Recently retired-former Head of Administration for Northampton Integrative Medicine.
How many years have you been a UMassFive member and why did you ultimately decide to become a member?
Approximately 12 years, [I ultimately decided to join] because of their strong community policies involvement, and always dealing with a face that knows me personally.
What is your favorite food?
Nothing better than a filet mignon! This would be my last meal request; it makes me so happy!
If you could travel anywhere in the world where would it be?
Egypt to ride a camel and see the pyramids.
If you were stranded on a deserted island and could only have three items with you, what would they be?
My pre-made martini mix, matches, and my Pandora playlist.
