This summer, the ACI team was back in Las Vegas for Valuation Expo. Celebrating Valuation Expo’s 20th year, the expo showcased valuable learning and networking opportunities. The ACI team also won Best in Show at the inaugural Val Expo Open, where attendees played competitive mini golf throughout the tradeshow! Hear from Valuation Expo attendees in this Appraisal Buzzcast and be sure to join us next year!

Designed by Brittany Byrum, the ACI team displayed Florida’s beach theme with pride, featuring sand castles, water hazards, and real Daytona Beach sand, but made some waves with a few appraiser obstacles: Lack of CompsAppraisal of a 7,000 Square Foot Mansion in the Middle of Tract Homes, and Borrower Not Home for Appointment! Learn more about Brittany below.

About Me: I have been with ACI for 7 years. I spent the first 4 years with the OneCall team providing customer support before moving to Product Management. I was born in Orange County, CA and moved to Las Vegas at 15. I then moved to Florida where I met my husband and currently reside in Daytona Beach with our 4 year old daughter. I enjoy spending time with my family and one of our favorite things to do is go to Disney World, which warranted us being passholders. Growing up, I wanted to be a marine biologist. I still can tell species of marine life apart to this day, especially marine mammals.

Hobbies: I enjoy being a mermaid. I have two tails that are fully swimmable and use them in some of Florida’s natural springs. I am part of a group of pirates that does a LOT of charity work. My friend and I will usually go as mermaids to some charity events, but will don pirate gear instead if the event isn’t mermaid friendly. Our favorite event is when Surfers for Autism comes to Flagler Beach. The smiles on faces always makes any charity event worth it.

Movies: Haunted Mansion (the newest one), Down Periscope is a VERY close #2. I tend to gravitate towards sci-fi and fantasy.

TV: NCIS (original, not spin-offs) 9-1-1 and 9-1-1 Lonestar, Only Murders In the Building, Doctor Who, Star Trek. I adore Bluey and will watch with my kid any time she has it on. I started binge watching Vikings and intend on watching Vikings Valhalla after. The only genre I won’t watch is horror.

Books: Sci-Fi/Fantasy. I LOVE the Game of Thrones books. I am currently reading a book by Rupert Holmes and enjoy his writing style. I also have the Fourth Wing to read once I finish my current book.

Sports: NHL! Vegas Golden Knights! I want to go to one of their home games someday.

Music: My playlists are wide ranging and can go from Mongolian Folk Metal to Frank Sinatra, classic rock, or pop. I’m not a big fan of Rap and most R&B, but there are a few I like. Lately, I’ve been heavily focused on Ruelle and Svrcina.

Food: I am a sucker for pasta. I also make my own sushi, which is a favorite dish in my house.
