Meet our 2019 Board of Directors 

​Hollie Quiring, President 
I have been working with RBC for 11 years. I started as an Assistant Branch Manager and moved my way over to the Personal Lending side. I have been a Mortgage Specialist with RBC for the last 3 of those years and love it! I really enjoy helping people go thru the home buying process. Prior to working with RBC, I was working on cruise ships for 7 years. That is where I met my husband. We lived and traveled all over the world while we worked on ships. We moved to Canada in 2007 and eventually started a family. We have a beautiful daughter and two pups. We enjoy now sharing our love of traveling with our daughter and try to explore somewhere new every year!
