In his new position, Crowell will drive the strategy and continued growth of Cornerstone’s national retail and realtor affiliate sales and operations. Crowell joined Cornerstone Home Lending in 2009 and most recently served as president of the Pacific Northwest region.

“Cornerstone is a mission-based company, and Jay is firmly committed to our mission, vision and convictions,” said Cornerstone Home Lending CEO Adam Laird. “Throughout his 15 years at Cornerstone, Jay has invested significant time in the success of everyone around him. I’m excited to see the growth opportunities that Jay will create for Cornerstone’s next generation of retail sales, production and operations leaders.”
“I am thrilled to serve our loan officers and continue helping them grow and achieve success here at Cornerstone,” added Crowell. “I intend to relentlessly pursue excellence in every area and facet of our retail business. My goal is to create a world-class experience for our clients and provide a platform that helps our originators exceed their goals and make a positive difference in every community we serve.”
