National home lender PrimeLending, a PlainsCapital Co., has announced the promotion of Kim Dybvad to vice president, area manager for Mid-America, with responsibility for loan origination production in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Kentucky.

Since joining PrimeLending in 2013, Dybvad has been a top-performing branch manager in the Dayton, Ohio, area and beyond, the company said.

Dybvad brings more than 30 years of experience in the mortgage industry to her new role. She began her career as an originator in 1988 at Savings of America, and held a range of leadership production roles at National City Bank, PNC Bank, and Union Savings before joining PrimeLending.

A 10-year member of the Ohio Mortgage Bankers Association, Dybvad served as president in 2020 and completed the MBA’s Future Leaders course in 2015.
