Founding Members

These are the women that believed in Ascend Appraisers from the very start, joining us for the unforgettable Founder’s Retreat in May of 2023.

“I was so excited when Emily first shared her vision for Ascend Appraisers with me. I knew it would facilitate deeper connections beyond the typical 5-10 minutes at networking events. I hoped to meet peers and mentors I could strategize with as well as glean from. Ascend Appraisers has exceeded my expectations, especially as it continues to grow and expand. It is a mastermind of female appraisers. ”
