As the Vice President of Business Development for HomePace, Inc. I facilitate growth and build mutually beneficial partnerships with purpose-driven and growth-minded companies whose customer base could benefit from home equity access. With more than two decades of residential lending experience and in-depth Home Equity Investment (HEI) comprehension under my belt, I bring a significant amount of industry expertise. In response, my extensive HEI and residential lending subject matter expertise has earned me the moniker Rosetta Stone regarding the industry. As an industry leader, I have been a source of information for numerous high-profile publications, including, The Wall Street Journal, Thomson-Reuters, US News, and World Report. I am particularly adept at solving complex systems and converting them to revenue. A notable example of this skill includes helping my company grow a consumer-direct channel from $0 to $500M in one year during my tenure as Director of Secondary at Midwest Equity Mortgage (now Celebrity Home Loans). This led us to be placed on Inc Magazine’s Top 5000 fastest-growing private companies two years in a row. I am passionate about residential mortgage lending, and I firmly believe that a home is a basic human need, which is why HomePace, Inc. is here to change the world. As housing becomes less affordable, subsequently creating a higher monetary appreciation, people are in great need of help purchasing a home and monetizing the available equity. Untapped household equity is estimated to be between $19T and $26T – the single largest untapped asset class globally. With an HEI, we can improve the capacity for consumers to purchase a home and open doors for those previously shut out of home ownership entirely.
