Teresa Floyd Named June 2012 Employee in the Spotlight

How many Arizona natives do you know? You can add a new person to your list. Our June 2012 Employee in the Spotlight is Teresa Floyd – born and raised in Arizona. Teresa grew up in the 35th Avenue and Cactus area and attended Moon Valley High School.  After completing her high school education, Teresa married Trent, the love of her life. Recently, Trent and Teresa celebrated 20 years together. Three wonderful children complete the Floyd Family – Taylor, 17, Abby, 15 and Jared, 12.
 
In 1999, Teresa was an Assistant Branch Manager for Wells Fargo, but left that position to become a stay-at-home mom.  Returning to the work force in 2005, Teresa found herself working as a contract notary signer for Shannon Graham who, at the time, was managing Fidelity National Title’s Gateway branch. Even though she had a banking background, Teresa learned the escrow business from the ground up under Shannon’s mentorship. Today, Teresa is an escrow officer at our Scottsdale Seville branch.
              
If you ask Teresa what life accomplishment she is most proud of, she will answer that, without a doubt, it is the family that she and Trent have together. She is very proud of her children and their talents. Taylor is enjoying her first job at a Harkins Theater, where she has already received a promotion and a raise. Abby is excellent at the piano, having taken lessons since she was five years old. And Jared’s current passion is soccer. He plays Club Soccer and has aspirations of being a professional. Both of the girls have their sights set on working in the health care arena.

Reading mystery books ranks toward the top of things Teresa likes to do in her leisure time. But most importantly, she loves the family activities. The Floyd Family enjoys swimming, camping, fishing, and riding quads in the White Mountains near Big Lake and Happy Jack. Attending Jared’s soccer games and tournaments are never-missed events, as well.

The life lessons Teresa is sharing with us (and what she tries to instill in her children) are to be nice to everyone; no one is better than another; direct compassion and kindness  towards those who need help; be aware of how we treat others; and finally, love to laugh (and we know she does!).

Congratulations, Teresa, on being chosen the FNTA- Maricopa June 2012 Employee in the Spotlight. Your cheerful disposition and drive to learn new things has served you well, and your team spirit is so admirable.  Thank you for your daily contribution to the Team at Scottsdale Seville and to our Fidelity Family. We are grateful for all you do.

Sincerely,
Mary Lou Paulk
President/County Manager
Maricopa County Operations
