If it’s banking, Carol Warfield has done it: teller, operations manager, branch manager, consumer and commercial lender, loan originator, and mortgage department manager. But it’s all been focused on one thing: helping her customers achieve their financial goals.

It’s why her coworkers love having her as the operations manager of SaviBank’s Mortgage Banking Division taking advantage of her 36-year career.  

But her true calling is spoiling her six grandchildren relentlessly. She’s also an avid gardener and loves spending time outdoors with her husband and their two dogs.

It’s why Stacy is a long-term resident of the area. She loves the small-town feel of Anacortes and the wonderful schools and local businesses that make it the perfect place for a family.

In her free time, Stacy enjoys spending time on the water with her husband and son.
