Helping credit unions and community banks more fully experience the game-changing potential of technology, especially in the mission-critical area of real estate lending, is something I'm really looking forward to. By injecting speed and efficiency into the traditional process, LenderClose is making hometown financial institutions the best option for more people. That mission is very energizing to me.Schuberts expertise spans several skill sets, including project management, team, and executive leadership, global vendor management and inter-departmental strategy development.

Schubert has managed budgets in excess of $14 million, as well as resources spanning multiple corporate segments. She has also created IT applications capable of reducing costs by millions. At LenderClose, Schubert will make executive decisions that align technological vision with the company's needs to positively impact current and future operations.
