The Remarketer of the Year award recognizes individuals in the remarketing industry who actively share expertise and skills that advance the industry, participate in industry associations and groups, and mentor in the development of the next generation of remarketers.
"Who would have thought over 26 years ago when I started with [Bank of America] that I would be in the remarketing industry. I do really appreciate this recognition. I love the industry and most of all, I love all of you that have helped me along the way and that have supported me," Chiaromonte said during her acceptance speech.
