ALTA promotes trio to bolster advocacy efforts

The American Land Title Association (ALTA) has announced three internal promotions as part of a broader effort to strengthen leadership and advocacy across the title insurance industry.

Elizabeth Blosser has been named as chief strategy, communications and innovation officer. She formerly served as ALTA’s vice president of government affairs for state advocacy, and will now lead the association’s strategic initiatives and messaging.

Emily Tryon — who previously served as ALTA’s vice president of government affairs for federal advocacy — has been promoted to chief advocacy officer. She will oversee ALTA’s legislative and regulatory agenda at all levels of government.

Kevin Cameron moves into the role of vice president and head of federal government affairs. He was most recently senior director of federal government affairs and will now guide ALTA’s efforts on Capitol Hill and with the executive branch, along with leading its grassroots and political engagement work.

“These changes mark a milestone in the association’s growth and reinforce our ongoing commitment to delivering value to our members through strategic thought leadership, proactive advocacy and innovative initiatives,” ALTA CEO Chris Morton said in a statement.

“Elizabeth Blosser, Emily Tryon and Kevin Cameron are accomplished, trusted leaders who bring unmatched expertise and passion to our work.”

Morton was appointed earlier this month as CEO following the departure of Diane Tomb, who filled the seat for six years.

ALTA President Richard Welshons said the board supports the new promotions.

“The ALTA Board of Governors is thrilled to see these promotions,” he said. “They will position ALTA to continue to deliver strong advocacy on behalf of its members, while supporting innovation in an evolving real estate landscape.”
