a seasoned executive with over 27 years of experience in the alternative financial services industry. Former President at Moneytree, Inc., a privately held company founded as a single retail branch in 1983, now serving customers through 100+ retail branches in five western states and British Columbia, an online lending portal, and a full-service factoring division.
Her experience steering the operations of the company through periods of significant regulatory change and the development of a formal governance structure, while simultaneously diversifying from two fairly homogeneous primary products into offering a suite of lending products, gives her a distinct perspective on the challenges small businesses face today. Her versatile communication skills, combined with the ability to learn and synthesize information quickly, operate successfully in a complex and ambiguous environment, and efficiently implement solutions, make her an effective contributor.
