As part of the Emerging Technology team, I research new technology to determine how it could make an impact at Quicken Loans. I build extensive prototypes and work with teams within Quicken Loans technology to integrate it within their products.

As Director of Mobile Development, I lead the teams that are responsible for all of Quicken Loans’ mobile apps, including the Rocket Mortgage Mobile app and the Mobile Mortgage Calculator by Quicken Loans. Our team is a passionate team of Software Developers, Product Owners, Quality Engineers and Leaders practicing Agile Software development. Our apps have over 1 million active users and provide our clients with the best mortgage origination and servicing experiences in the industry. One of my strengths is innovation and keeping in tune with the latest technology. One example was in 2018 when my internal hackathon team won the company-wide internal IT Hackathon. In 24 hours we built mortgage payment apps for the Apple Watch and Wear OS by Google watches. We took the concept further after winning the Hackathon and released both apps to our clients within 3 months.

As a Team Leader on the Mobile Development team, I was responsible for leading a cross functional software development team following Agile and the Scrum framework. Our team grew and split into new teams numerous times while I was a leader.Additionally, I won the monthly award for the team member who best exemplifies our culture across all 15,000 team members at Quicken Loans.
