Leah Thompson
Loan Officer Support
While born in snowy Chicago, Leah considers herself a native Phoenician. She grew up in Phoenix and Mesa and graduated from Desert Ridge High School in the top 10% of her class. She immediately pursued her bachelor’s degree at Arizona State University who provided her with a full ride scholarship. Four years of college and three major changes later, Leah graduated with an Interdisciplinary Studies degree in Math and Economics, two of her favorite subjects.
Soon after graduation, Leah packed up her bags on a whim and moved to sunny California and found herself pursuing a career in the mortgage industry for a national lender. She quickly moved up within the company as a loan processor. Life brought her back to Arizona, providing Leah the opportunity to bring her expertise and personality to the Augustyniak Team. Leah prides herself in making sure all loans run smooth and painless. She makes sure that customer service is a priority level throughout the transaction in order to make all our clients feel at ease. Her motto: “Home buying doesn’t have to be stressful.”
In her spare time, Leah enjoys spending time with her husband, adventures, and trips to the dog park with her two mutts.
