Michael Derstine leads a team of analysts dedicated to the management of an asset class called Mortgage Servicing Rights (MSR). He is approaching his tenth year in mortgage finance, and has held many roles. He started as a junior analyst, compiling webs of spreadsheet reports in the early hours of the morning before the Traders started their day. Like many in this community, he was driven to make processes better (and make life easier).
