Christine Nielsen

Portfolio Manager

I am a Vice President and Government Guaranteed Lending Portfolio Manager. Once a Government Guaranteed Lending loan closes, it heads over to my department where I manage the relationship for the life of the loan. Some of my day-to-day responsibilities include performing annual reviews, post close reviews of the files, and collecting updated financials. If a borrower has a servicing request on their loan, then it is my duty to assist them. I also have the task of handling the collections and workout responsibilities. I jump in where needed and help the other departments where needed as well. I enjoy working closely with my team members to create the best experience possible for our borrowers!

I graduated from Saint Xavier University with a dual concentration in finance and international business and I have over thirteen years of experience in the financial industry. In addition to my financial experience, I love to volunteer! On weekends, I volunteer at my church, caring for all the toddlers. I am also a volunteer coach for my children’s sports teams. I have coached soccer, flag football, volleyball, and basketball.

I currently reside in a suburb right outside of Chicago with my two sons. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, especially my two little boys and our charcoal lab, Charlie! We usually spend most of our time outdoors exploring new walking trails, fishing, or trying out new sports. Our favorite place to visit is Disney World!
