On-the-go lender Churchill Mortgage is out to build its presence in Atlanta and has hired a former real estate agent to lead its business development efforts. The Brentwood-based company has been growing aggressively in the past year, expanding locally and in Texas and Mississippi, among others.

“The metro-Atlanta area continues to be a strong market for Churchill; therefore, recruiting and dedicating more resources to support the local communities made sense,” said Mike Hardwick, president, Churchill Mortgage. “With her extensive background in the real estate and housing industry and her local insight, we’re excited about the success Jennifer will bring to this area.”
