For the last 20 years, Suha Zehl has been laser-focused on the real estate and financial services ecosystem and passionate about support- ing and encouraging women to unleash their best. As Chief Analytics Officer at EPM, Zehl is a member of the executive team, providing key and actionable insights to the organization’s leaders to support the business vision and strategy and to drive organizational growth across all channels. Zehl’s contributions have helped reduce the average cycle time, reduce the underwriting turn times, increase productivity and increase customer satisfaction dramatically. This year, Zehl created and hosted “In the Spotlight with Suha,” an online platform on LinkedIn to help fill a need that has long been overlooked — recognizing and appreciating the next generation of women leaders in the mortgage lending ecosystem. In this series, Suha interviews young women who are not in management or leadership roles and who are making a significant difference to their organizations and helping to reshape our industry for the better every single day. In addition to her role as CAO, Zehl is a founding member of EPM’s Diversity, Inclusion & Equity initiative and is a leader of the organization’s Core Values and Culture programs. She also serves on the board of governors for NAMMBA and the board of directors for Women with Vision. Zehl is using her voice and passion to raise awareness and help families realize their homeownership reality.
