Meet Adam - Salmon Bay Operations Manager

We’re starting a new series, where we do staff spotlights, so that you can virtually meet our team!

Meet Operations Manager AdamFirst up is Adam Criswell. He’s been with us since the winter of 2011, and spends his days reading tax returns and working with you to get your loan closed. 

If you haven’t already had the pleasure of meeting him, here’s a little Q & A with Adam.

What’s something you splurge on in your home?  Speakers.

What’s something you’re unwilling to spend on? Delivery food. It’s a convenience I’m unwilling to pay for.

What is something in your life that you can’t live without?  3 weeks ago I would have said coffee. But today, it’s people. I’m an extrovert, and I would go stir crazy without getting to connect with people daily.

If money were no object, where would you live? Driving to Florida from Wisconsin for the family summer vacations to hang out with my grandparents as a whole family.

Favorite place in Seattle?? Early mornings on Lake Union.Adam Criswell Operations Manager

What’s your favorite childhood memory? When I was a kid, my friends and I used to hike to these waterfalls near where I grew up. We would just lay on the river rocks for hours in the sun. Definition of happiness.

What’s one thing you thought you knew, and later found out you were wrong about? I used to think I didn’t like Indian food. It took me a little while to figure out, but boy was I wrong. Delicious. Pretty much always.

What’s something you want people to understand about mortgages? They aren’t something you get to just run in and grab, like a pastry. You are an active participant in making this happen, and we need your help to do it.

Whether it’s helping you in-person or virtually, you can rest assured that Adam and our team will be there for you to help you accomplish your home financing goals.

Meet the rest of our team!
