“We are very excited to have Judie join our team at Scott Griffin,” said Aliza Falk, chief operating officer. “With our founder Scott Griffin hosting a national show on CNBC, it made sense to expand the mortgage division to the national spotlight, and Judie has a proven track record of recruiting the perfect talent for growth.
