What made you decide to join BesTitle?
When the Covid lockdowns began, I started working from home for a wonderful company that specialized in legal bill review. I worked for that company for over a year but always wanted to get back to practicing property law. BesTitle offered me that opportunity.
What personal qualities do you have that help you succeed in your role at BesTitle?
I am dependable and kind. Clear and honest communication is important to me.
What excites you about the future of BesTitle?
We have assembled a newer but experienced team in the Morgantown office. I am looking forward to building and growing relationships with new and established customers with my new team.
What are the three things you can’t live without?
My family, my dogs, and coffee.
How do you like to spend your free time when you are not working?

Please tell us about your family.
My parents, Daniel and Margaret Morgan, live in my childhood home in the most beautiful area of Richwood, West Virginia. My brother and sister-in-law, Jason Morgan and Sarah Farris, also live in Morgantown.
