Leslie Meaux Pordzik, a longtime federal housing finance leader, joins the board of Celink’s parent company following her retirement from Ginnie Mae

Peer Advisors, the parent company of Celink, the nation’s leading reverse mortgage subservicer, has appointed Leslie Meaux Pordzik to its Board of Directors as an Independent Representative, bringing a veteran perspective in federal housing finance to the company’s strategic leadership.

Pordzik, a well-known name in mortgage and housing policy circles, most recently served as Senior Vice President of Issuer and Portfolio Management at Ginnie Mae, where she oversaw major federal housing finance programs and played a key role in the agency’s operational strategy. She retired from Ginnie Mae in December 2024.

In her new role, Pordzik will advise both Peer Advisors and Celink on corporate governance, operational strategy, and long-term growth — areas where her public-sector background and financial expertise are expected to make a significant impact.

“We are pleased to welcome Leslie to the Peer Advisors Board,” said Marion McDougall, Chairman of Peer Advisors and CEO of Celink. “Her deep background in financial services and government operations will be invaluable as we continue to grow and serve an expanding client base in the reverse mortgage space.”
