Dean Bank recently announced the addition of Alycia McCallum as their newest Residential Mortgage Originator. McCallum’s duties will include working with current homeowners and potential homebuyers throughout the bank’s service area, helping them reach their goals. Alycia is an expert working with a broad range of products and services. From first-time homebuyers to new home purchases…refinance options to home improvement products. Even second mortgages including HELOC’s and fixed-rate equity loans are options she can discuss.

Alycia gained valuable experience working at local financial institutions such as Milford Federal, Homefield Credit Union, Webster First Federal Credit Union and Milford National Bank over the past 24 years. A lifelong Hopedale resident; she is a graduate of Hopedale High School and the New England College of Finance. Alycia brings a wealth of local community banking knowledge to this new role.
