Lifting women up in the mortgage industry

Kimberly Lanham, SVP of Client Services, Mphasis Digital Risk tells Mortgage Professional America, that more work needs to be done toward promoting diversity in the industry but it’s still better than when she first entered the field.

A memorable highlight came in 2015, when the summit – sponsored by Mphasis Digital Risk – brought the top 20 women in the industry together for collaborative sessions and networking events. Five years later, the Summit was spun off into the Women of ALICE (Achieve, Lead, Inspire, Cultivate, Empower), a 501(c)(3) non-profit she founded and now chairs. “Over 100 women are members, and we host a very limited two-and-a half day summit for 50 women to ensure that maximum networking time is available and so that meaningful relationships can be developed,” she said with palpable pride. “I also recently joined the board of an insurtech company called SimplyIOA as their first female board advisor, and I look forward to working with their company and connecting them to the mortgage industry.”
