Teresa Dean

My passion for residential lending began in 1996 as a loan processor for National Bank of Alaska. That first year in the industry was hard but I learned so much. In 1997, I began originating home loans and fell in love with helping people finance homes. Not only is it a challenging and constantly changing profession that challenges me intellectually, but it rewards me socially and emotionally as well.

What I love most about my profession is I get the privilege of meeting so many great people. It is so rewarding to work with families over the years that I not only help once but become a trusted advisor, friend, and an extension of family.

In addition to my day to day serving of valued customers, my position also allows me to be involved in my community. Over the years, I have been blessed to participate in many aspects of my community from professional organizations like Women's Council of Realtors, to sponsoring local youth sports teams, to volunteering time as a bell ringer for Salvation Army as well as many others. Every day is a new blessing.
