In her over 16 years with the firm, Deb Angstadt has performed a wide variety of work for clients, from CEO of successful turnaround situations to strategic management roles involving business expansions and restructurings, operations, finance, human resources, and information technology. A large portion of her work has leveraged her background in sales and marketing, where she is comfortable with both formulating the plan or vision as well as performing the hands-on implementation.

Apart from Warren Whitney, Deb’s experience includes roles as CEO of a mortgage company and a title company, as well as executive sales and marketing positions in the student loan industry, and overseeing the delivery of loan insurance, secondary market, and servicing products. She was also vice president and division head of a full-service advertising and public relations firm. She began her career in banking.
