New American Funding creates new SVP role focused on minority lending

New American Funding has hired Mosi Gatling (pictured) as senior vice president of strategic growth and expansion.

Gatling, a loan originator and advocate for increasing Black homeownership and improving industry outreach to underserved communities, will focus on recruitment and the development of marketing and business strategies tailored toward the Black community.

“I am thrilled to be joining New American Funding,” Gatling said. “This role offers me a platform to be more than just a loan officer. Being at NAF will allow me to have greater impact on the mortgage industry as a whole and move the business to a better place. There needs to be a shift in the industry’s approach towards Black homeowners, moving away from outdated messaging and processes that belittle the situation and the people. This position presents me with an opportunity to affect positive change across the industry, and I’m excited to get started.”

Most recently, Gatling served as a sales manager at loanDepot for nearly seven years. Before that, she held various mortgage roles at Guild Mortgage, Home Community Mortgage, MetLife Home Loans, and Bank of America.

“We are very excited to welcome Mosi to the NAF team,” New American Funding CEO Patty Arvielo said in a press release. “I frequently say that by the time I leave this industry, I want there to be more women and people of color in leadership positions. It’s long been a passion of mine to lift people up and put them into positions where they can thrive. Mosi is a proven leader in the mortgage industry and is passionate about making a difference. We believe that she will be a great asset to our company and will help us to continue to grow and succeed.”

“With Mosi’s extensive experience and proven leadership in the mortgage industry, we are confident that she will play a pivotal role in driving our company’s growth and success,” added Pat Bolan, chief production officer of NAF. “Her commitment to promoting diversity and inclusion aligns perfectly with our business values, and we eagerly anticipate the valuable contributions she will bring to our team. We are excited to have her on board as we continue to serve a diverse customer base and thrive in an increasingly competitive mortgage market.”
