I provided in-depth counseling, reviewed financial documents, processed applications, determined eligibility, and collaborated with Florida Housing on complex cases. I also administered the payroll, oversaw daily business operations, and supervised a 3-member staff.Key Accomplishments:• Launched business, gained in-depth knowledge of complex federal program requirements for Florida Hardest-Hit Program, and targeted marketing efforts to at-risk homeowners to maximize program participation. • Competed for and won funding and 10-year contract with Florida Housing Finance Corporation in 2011 to expand client coverage to all 67 counties in Florida, which increased homeowners served from approximately 3K to 10K.• Invited to speak at major events to educate large national lenders on Florida Hardest-Hit Program.• Developed financial documents, internal controls, policies, and procedures in compliance with federal audit requirements. • Monitored and evaluated business performance to inform strategic decision-making.
