As part of the U.S. Small Business Administration’s Secondary Markets Group, I help lenders structure and execute secondary sales and securitizations and review complex actions—including bank mergers, portfolio transfers, and Supervised Lender applications. Over 16 years at SBA, I have advanced the agency’s mission through strategic capital allocation, ecosystem building, and process modernization.
