Diversified senior financial services executive with proven success building and leading teams to capitalize on business opportunities. Recognized for outstanding client relationships, internal and external collaboration, and deep, multi-discipline mastery of primary and secondary mortgage markets. Demonstrated leadership across business development, securitization, capital markets, finance, and product management.Seize the opportunity. It’s a motto I’ve lived since college, and a mindset I’ve brought to every day of my career. My specialty is identifying opportunities that can transform organizations, teams, processes and technology, and bringing that transformation to life to deliver value. My skills are grounded in practical, real-world, in-the-trenches and leadership experience across a diverse set of disciplines: business development and sales, fixed income capital markets, marketing and investor relations, and mortgage securitization. In every role, I’ve built or transformed something to capture an opportunity. In the beginning, it was programs, products and processes. Later, in leadership roles, I re-wired teams and technology. For example, during the 2008 financial crisis I led a re-organization that eliminated redundancy, re-aligned workflow, and doubled productivity. Today, I develop collaborative, thoughtful leaders who enhance the organization’s capabilities and get results for their clients. That recently translated into a 20 point market share increase and a 30 point client satisfaction increase over five years. My leadership style is best described as a multiplier—a leader who uses their intelligence to amplify the smarts and capabilities of the people around them. Leading a person or a team to achievements beyond their expectations is my definition of success. I'm proud to have seen many of my team promoted to significant leadership roles. Similarly, helping my clients achieve their desired business goals is what motivates me every day. I believe the best way to earn business from clients is to ask the right questions and actively listen to really understand the answers. After that, it’s getting creative to help them achieve or exceed their business objectives. I take pride in being a highly engaged leader who creates highly engaged teams—that’s how you deliver exceptional client experience.
