Ambassador of the Month

Sarah Hubbard
Vertex Financial

What is your current occupation? Residential Mortgage Loan Officer

What do you love most about your industry?

Building relationships with my clients and referral network. I love to learn about people’s goals, their past, and how my specific niche of the financial industry can help them grow and keep achieving what they want.

How do you define success?

This has changed from year to year with many different life obstacles, but I feel like this quote encompasses it best: "Success to me is, number one, wake up in the morning and feel like I'm excited about the day ahead, that I have a purpose, that I'm going somewhere. That's success to me. Number two, is to feel as though in my chosen endeavors, whether it be work, whether it be family, whether it be hobbies, that I am making progress in those things. That's success to me. And number three, I think success is being able to maintain a level of happiness and gratitude through the good times and the hard times. If you can do those three things, wake up excited about the day, feel like you're making progress, and maintain a level of happiness and gratitude, then I think you're pretty damn successful."-Matthew McConaughey

If you could choose anyone as a mentor, who would it be and why?

Jenna Kutcher-she is an entrepreneur, wife, mother who strives to help others wake up and feel fulfilled in life while still remaining completely authentic to who she is. She has an amazing innovative mind and I have watched her grow a very successful business, while still being present for her family.

What advice would you give to someone interested in working in your industry?

Patience is the biggest key to originating mortgages. It takes a solid three years of hard work to make the relationships that matter most with your network and clients. Stick to what aligns with you and you will attract your ideal clients.
