What I'm looking for
I am a highly organized and performance-driven Mortgage Loan Processor with over 20 years of experience in the industry. My expertise lies in streamlining the mortgage process, reducing underwriting conditions, and enhancing borrower satisfaction. I pride myself on being a dependable point of contact for loan officers, underwriters, and closing teams, ensuring that all parties are informed and engaged throughout the loan process.
Throughout my career, I have consistently demonstrated my ability to manage high-volume workloads while maintaining a keen attention to detail. At Tag Lending Group, I support junior loan officers by structuring files and preparing them for submission, while also handling the complete processing of loans from submission to closing. My proactive approach has resulted in significant improvements in closing times and borrower satisfaction across various roles.
I am passionate about continuous improvement and have implemented systems that have reduced conditions on final submissions by 25%. My commitment to excellence and my ability to adapt to changing guidelines and technologies make me a valuable asset in any mortgage processing environment.
