BIOGRAPHY:

Chris Pummill is President of NDeX West, LLC, one of the largest independent trustees in the nation. She has over 30 years of mortgage default experience, specializing in the management of non-judicial foreclosures in California, Nevada and Arizona.

Chris began her career in 1979 working for two of the largest independent trustees in the Northern California area. In 1996, she relocated to Texas where she was appointed Chief Operating Officer for a large independent trustee. In 2005, she took on additional responsibilities for the parent company including the management of the foreclosure, loss mitigation and property valuation departments.

Chris is a member of the California Mortgage Bankers Association, U.S. Foreclosure Network, Mortgage Bankers Association, Texas Mortgage Bankers Association and the United Trustee's Association. She lives in the Dallas area with her husband Steve and enjoys traveling and cooking.

I have been in the industry for over 30 years and have had the opportunity to work with many of the largest servicers. I have also had the pleasure of working with many people that have been involved in the UTA organization over the years.

The mortgage default industry has been going through tremendous changes which have been a challenge for most trustees/firms. I'd like to get involved with the UTA to:

• Promote consistency and best practices
  
• Brainstorm with peers to tackle industry challenges
  
• Participate in training and/or industry conferences
  
• Promote and invite service and/or investor participation
  
• Target state specific issues that hurt trustees/firms and brainstorm on solutions
  
• Work with UTA team to research and recommend state specific timeline changes and/or fee-cost increases.

I respect the members of this organization and know that we all have different strengths, experience and knowledge to share and contribute. I am very interested in working as a team to deal with real issues that impact our industry and to continue to build and expand the membership of the UTA organization.
