I've been with the company about a year and a half, although I've been in the title insurance business for 21 years. We insure mostly high-end commercial real estate transactions. Title insurance is a funny business.
Nobody ever sets out to go into it as a career.
It just sort of sneaks up on you, grabs you and sucks you in. I was no exception. I graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in 1978 with a bachelor's degree in Geography. My areas of emphasis were remote sensing and cartography. I fully intended to work for a year or two and then go back to grad school, so I took a job as a cartographer with a company in Milwaukee called Wisconsin Title Service.
