Kirstin Everard
PRESIDENT & FOUNDER
I got my first official bank loan when I was 8 years old. When I asked my parents for money to buy a 4-H market lamb to raise for the fair, they told me to get it “the old fashioned way”. My dad handed me 3 copies of a bank loan application and made me do it on our family IBM typewriter. I still have that old checkbook register, with my 8-year old bubble-cursive handwriting!
