Clem has long been an industry advocate for eNote, eMortgage and eWarehouse adoption in the secondary market to build integrity and transparency in the mortgage transactions process.

"Brenda is already a familiar face in the mortgage industry, and we are honored to have her on our team," said Mark McElroy, CEO of Pavaso. "She will be one of Pavaso's top spokespersons in leading the charge toward universal adoption of eMortgage. Brenda's passion, experience and her ability to articulate complicated information clearly make her an outstanding resource for Pavaso's clients, as well as for the industry as a whole."

"I'm very pleased to join Pavaso, a leader in digital closings," Clem said. "Pavaso's technology reduces loan costs by digitizing the process, enabling lenders to provide a more complete loan package and reduce errors by eliminating undersigning and over signing of closing documents."
