NORTH MILL EQUIPMENT FINANCE LLC
NORWALK, CT

North Mill Equipment Finance Company Overview The Company As a premier lender with a national footprint, North Mill works with third-party referral (TPR) sources to finance “small-ticket” equipment commercial leases and loans ranging from $10,000 to $250,000 in value. The company works with A – D credits, finances many types of assets, and is an “application only” lender. Since North Mill does not employ a salesforce, the enterprise relies on third-party referral sources to generate income. North Mill covets these relationships; everything the firm does is designed to help TPRs build their businesses. Previously known as Equilease Financial Services, the company was re-branded North Mill Equipment Finance in 2012 and capitalized with institutional equity. Evolving and growing throughout its 60 year history, today North Mill is a leading commercial lender serving small businesses all over the nation. The executive management team at North Mill has brought about steady and consistent growth and has made the company one of the leading providers of equipment finance in the nation.

My name is Carla Gokey and I am a Sales and Marketing Representative for North Mill. I grew up in Astoria, Queens, NY and graduated from Queens College with a Bachelors in Liberal Arts. I have a curious mind and I enjoy learning, reading and I am a huge baseball fan – Go Yankees! I have two beautiful children that are the reason I stumbled into a career in customer service. I began my career in banking as a Teller for Hudson Valley Bank which allowed me to hone my skills in service and still allowed me the time to be home with my children. I quickly realized that helping others was task I enjoyed and I did it well. As my career progressed, I left Hudson Valley Bank and went to work for Wells Fargo formally known as Wachovia and I was there for 10 years and wore many hats; Service Banker, Customer Sales & Service Representative and Service Manager. I decided to end my career in banking but continued to focus on perfecting my skills which led me to North Mill Equipment Finance. From the minute I stepped off the elevator and was led down the hall to where the office area is, I knew this was the place I wanted to work for and I’m super happy I am. In the short time that I have been with North Mill, I have learned a lot, I have been able to apply my skills and be part of the success of a growing company and knowing that I played a small part in their success.
