I lead compliant mortgage default servicing operations, portfolio reporting, and high-performing teams.
What I'm looking for
At Essex Mortgage, I lead default servicing operations, developing specialists, managing workflow performance, and protecting lender assets through compliant claim filing, default reporting, and bankruptcy processes.
I've progressed from Team Lead to Default Supervisor and Default Manager, overseeing KPIs, aged inventory, quality controls, regulatory changes, and reporting for portfolio health. I also resolve team conflicts and support a positive, cohesive workplace culture.
My mortgage servicing background includes investor reporting, loan analysis, court-document review, loan sales, and financial reconciliation at PHH Mortgage Corporation and Trinity Financial Services. I work fluently in English and Spanish and use reporting and analysis to improve operations and manage risk.
