Board of Directors

Leslie White

CentraLand Title Company
Chairman

Leslie White: Hello!  I am a Senior Escrow Officer with CentraLand Title Company, which is a locally owned title company in Bell County.  My real estate career has encompassed several facets of the real estate industry, such as working in real estate law, originating mortgages for a local mortgage company and an Escrow Officer/Manager in title, with close to 20 years in the title industry.  I truly enjoy working alongside lenders and realtors to deliver a positive closing experience for one of the largest purchases one will make in their lifetime. What I love the most about this business are the relationships built with everyone involved in each transaction and feel that life is about connecting with others, developing those relationships and working together to improve the community that you live and work in. 


Annie Griffey:  I am a Escrow Officer with 11 years experience in the title industry and strive to make your closing experience the best it can be.  One of my favorite quotes by Jay Danzie is "Your smile is your logo, your personality is your business card, and how you leave others feeling after an experience with you is your trademark".  I look forward to building my trademark with all of you in Salado.

As a chamber of commerce president for Rockdale, TX, I planned, organized, directed and controlled the chamber’s services, products, economic development and public policy activities for association’s members and responded to the needs of its members within available and agreed upon financial resources.

I developed and maintained a collaborative working relationship between the Rockdale Chamber of Commerce, and other key business & public policy organizations, other regional chambers and other regional organizations to foster a nurturing business environment for members. I Oversaw the day-to-day operations of the Chamber, including management of programs, membership and marketing efforts.  I worked with the Chairs to prepare agendas and materials for Board and Executive Committee meetings.  I developed goals and objectives for recommendation to the Board and established administrative policies and procedures for office functions.  I served as a principal spokesperson and ambassador for the Chamber and worked with businesses in the Rockdale area on retention and expansion.  I am excited to serve on the Salado board and to be a part of Salado’s ever changing future.
