Dammen brings over 25 years of experience in the mortgage industry, primarily as a correspondent lending executive. Most recently, he worked as an account executive in the correspondent lending division of Impac Mortgage Holdings, where he developed and managed client relationships with mid-sized to large mortgage bankers in Southern California and Arizona.
