Women leading a National Title Underwriter

Oklahoma City, OK — In a historic milestone for the title insurance industry, American Eagle Title Insurance Company (AETIC) proudly celebrates Christina Wooten and Kristi French, who now stand as two of the youngest women in the nation to lead a national title underwriter at the CEO and President level. Their appointments mark a bold new era of inclusive leadership and reflect AETIC’s deep commitment to promoting from within and empowering the next generation of title industry trailblazers.

Wooten, recently appointed Chief Executive Officer, has dedicated nearly 40 years to American Eagle Title Insurance Company. Rising through the ranks with hands-on expertise in nearly every department, she brings unmatched insight and a people-first leadership style. Her promotion places her among an elite group of women nationally who have ascended to the top executive role in a male-dominated industry.

“Christina’s leadership is built on service, experience, and integrity,” said Randy Dittmann, Chairman Emeritus of AETIC. “She’s not only earned her place—she’s redefining what’s possible for women in title.”

French, now serving as President, has been with AETIC for over 20 years and has played a transformative role in the company’s national expansion. Known for her operational precision, scalable systems thinking, and forward-looking vision, she joins Wooten in breaking barriers and reshaping the leadership landscape of the title industry.

“Kristi is one of the most strategic and driven professionals I’ve ever worked with,” said Wooten. “Together, we are building a company that values innovation, people, and possibility—and we’re doing it with bold, collaborative leadership.”

Supporting the ALTA “Women in Title” Movement

The appointments of Wooten and French come at a pivotal time for the title industry, as the American Land Title Association (ALTA) and its members continue to champion greater representation for women across executive and leadership roles. Their promotions align with the goals of ALTA’s “Women in Title” initiative, which seeks to foster professional development, mentorship, and recognition for women across the industry.

Wooten and French are now among the youngest women in the country to lead a national underwriter at their respective levels. Their combined leadership signals not only a shift in demographics—but a culture of empowerment and progress within American Eagle Title Insurance Company.

Leading the Way Forward

Together, Wooten and French are steering AETIC through a period of ambitious growth, technological innovation, and strategic market expansion. Their leadership is paving the way for more women to rise in the title insurance industry—not just as contributors, but as visionaries and executive leaders.

“With Christina and Kristi at the helm, AETIC isn’t just keeping pace—we’re setting the pace,” said Dittmann. “They represent the future of this industry.”
