His deep background in mortgage lending helps Cherry Creek’s most critical team of engineers deliver systems and integrations to third parties such as Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, DocuTech and Optimal Blue. He is currently leading the company’s efforts to evaluate and implement a new enterprise document management system.

“Reid is a rare talent who combines deep mortgage and servicing knowledge with technology leadership and software development expertise,” said Darren Shaffer, chief technology officer at Cherry Creek Mortgage. “In a few short months as a leader on our Advanced Technology team, Reid has taken our technology releases from a monthly event to continuous deployment, which allows us to ship changes to our software just as soon as they are tested and verified.”
