2018 HW Insiders: Jennifer Ward 

Known at PrimeLending as its “unofficial Tim Gunn,” Jennifer Ward is a make-it-work person. No matter what is thrown at her, she finds a way to close. In her role as national closing and funding manager PrimeLending, she is responsible for ensuring all loans close and fund accurately, efficiently and on time. No small feat given the sheer number of transactions that pass through her and her team’s hands in the course of a year.
