Presently she sits on the Professional Standards Committee.
“Judy’s is a most wonderful and fitting homecoming,” said company founder and CEO Michael Saunders. “She was a vital force in the business when she first joined us and has been a top-producing agent ever since. The years do not alter one’s values or change a true professional’s passion for the business. Nor do they erode the commitment to customer service and personal excellence that Judy has always stood for. If anything, time makes them stronger and more enduring. Needless-to-say, we are absolutely thrilled to have Judy back where she belongs, and equally delighted to welcome for the first time her exceptionally talented business partner, Kristina Talkie.”
