“In a time where it feels like technology is what everyone is focused on, it’s refreshing to know that a company values the human connection and people helping people,” Wizelman said. “Technology is a key initiative at Cornerstone, but it’s never prioritized above serving one another and helping our borrowers have an amazing mortgage experience.”

Jay Crowell, president of Cornerstone’s national retail division, said the addition strengthens the company’s leadership team.

“Their depth of experience, commitment to serving others and unwavering integrity make us a stronger organization from day one,” Crowell said.
