Nov 23, 2015

Bay Equity has announced the addition of Area Sales Manager Laura Edwards to the company’s new branch in Gillette, Wyo. Edwards was raised in Wyoming and graduated from Campbell County High School in Gillette.

“Gillette is my home, and where I have built my career,” Edwards said.

Starting in the mortgage business in 1996 as an originator, she eventually became manager for three area lenders.

“Laura is a great addition to our company," said Bay Equity President Casey McGovern. "She shares our commitment to exceptional customer service and has a great record of helping borrowers becoming homeowners.”

Edwards says Bay Equity provides a new and better way to manage her business, making the transition an easy one.

“My goal is to create long term relationships with my clients and become their lender for life. I strive to create as smooth a process as possible,” Edwards said. “I am excited to be here and love the systems we have in place and the team we have surrounding us.”

On the Board of Directors for the Wyoming Mortgage Lenders Association (WMLA) for 15 years, Edwards served as WMLA president from 2006 to 2013.
