Gene Merrill was a proud U.S. Navy veteran, 33rd Degree Mason, avid hunter, fisher, golfer, carpenter, chef, and, most importantly, a devoted husband, father and grandfather. Gene adamantly believed in the importance of a positive and inclusive work environment where each team member’s contributions, ideas, and efforts are valued. This belief system is the foundation of our company’s culture.
Never satisfied with the status quo, Gene worked to create a company that sees past the common financial measurements of success and focuses on the individuals and families it helps guide home.
Through his philanthropic efforts and an abundance of care for the people he worked alongside, Gene inspired his co-founders Timur Tunador, Jon Coy, and Patrick Collins to instill ACM with a feeling of family, nurture it into an exceptional team, and build a brand that would revolutionize the mortgage industry. Those principles still guide us today in everything we do.
Gene Merrill will always be at the heart of every loan closed here at ACM.
