We are pleased to share Housing Wire’s recent press release on their exciting announcement of their 2022 Rising Stars!
June 1, 2022 – DALLAS, Texas — Today, HousingWire announced the 2022 Rising Stars, spotlighting 50
leaders under the age of 40 who are driving the mortgage, real estate and fintech industries
forward.
This year’s Rising Stars were selected by HousingWire’s selection committee based on their
professional achievements within their organizations, contributions to the overall housing
economy, community outreach, client impact and personal success.
“The hard work of this year’s Rising Stars is apparent in their long list of accomplishments and
their perseverance in an ever-changing housing environment,” HousingWire Editor and Chief
Sarah Wheeler said. “These up-and-coming leaders are breathing new life into an industry that
has so much room for innovation — it’s exciting to imagine how their contributions will impact
what’s to come in housing.”
Each year, the winners represent standout professionals in mortgage origination, real estate
sales, capital markets and loan servicing. The list includes entrepreneurs, marketers,
operations experts, technology innovators and much more. While the winners represent a wide
variety of industry functions, they all demonstrate leadership and innovation that inspires not
only those within their own organizations, but in their communities and in the industry at large.
“This year’s list of Rising Stars honorees is entirely composed of housing professionals who
never settle for the status quo — they work hard, take risks and raise their hands when new
opportunities present themselves,” said Clayton Collins, CEO of HW Media. “This determination
is the embodiment of the Rising Stars award and we’re privileged to have these leaders moving
the housing economy forward.”
