Waterstone Mortgage Corporation has announced the promotion of Stephanie Ziebell to senior vice president–general counsel at the company’s Pewaukee, Wis.-based corporate office. Ziebell has been with Waterstone Mortgage since 2012, when she started as the assistant general counsel for the company.

In December 2018, she joined the Waterstone Mortgage executive team. In her new role as senior vice president–general counsel, Ziebell will have increased participation in the development, execution and management of Waterstone Mortgage’s strategic plans.
