Three members of the North Shore Bank team took home honors at the Wisconsin Mortgage Bankers Association’s third annual Best in Business Awards on October 19 in Madison, and one more was a finalist.

Senior residential loan specialist Marta Acosta received the award for Best in Processing – Milwaukee Chapter.

Senior mortgage lender Stephanie Glowinski-Moeller received the award for Best Loan Originator – Milwaukee Chapter.

And senior vice president Mike Kellman received the President’s Gavel Award. The WMBA installed Mike as president for 2016-2017 last June.

Mortgage loan originator Diana Castillo was one of three finalists for the statewide Rising Star award.

“There are many deserving mortgage loan originators at North Shore Bank and in the Milwaukee market,” Stephanie said. “I was very honored just to have been nominated and very surprised to see my name on the big screen as the winner.” She credits her team — including fellow winner Marta — for her success. “We work so well together, and I am always getting great reviews not only from our borrowers, but also from my referral partners. Also, without the support from senior management and my manager, Chris Boland, I really don’t think I would have been nominated.”

“It was a great privilege to win,” Marta said. “Hard work and dedication definitely played a big role. I felt very honored and blessed to be part of such a wonderful team.”
