Once-in-a-Generation Transformational Force: Priya Seenath Recognized as a 2024 Lending Luminary by Progress in Lending

We’re so fortunate at Sagent to have strong determined leaders with a clear vision and plan to revolutionize America’s $14 trillion mortgage servicing ecosystem. Priya Seenath, SVP, Chief of Staff is one of those exceptional leaders and a once-in-a-generation transformational force in the mortgage industry, which is one of the many reasons she was named a 2024 Progress in Lending Lending Luminary.  

Progress in Lending, defines a luminary as “a person who inspires or influences others” – even during a time of market uncertainty. We couldn’t think of anyone more deserving of this distinction than Priya, who has been a true luminary dedicated to revolutionizing the servicing industry through operational excellence, relentless execution, and relevant mentorship. 

Priya’s Commitment to Innovation  

Since joining Sagent, Priya hands-on leadership has been critical to ensuring the successful launch of Dara, the first mortgage software platform to unify all data and user experiences for servicers and homeowners across the entire servicing lifecycle. As Progress in Lending writes:  

Priya’s strong leadership has been a guiding light throughout the development, launch, and ongoing implementation of Dara. Her collaborative leadership style was critical in pushing the launch of Dara forward while ensuring it was delivered with top-tier quality.

Priya led a complete overhaul of Sagent’s quality assurance and code delivery, creating a better experience (and exceptional quality control) for customers and partners across Sagent’s tech stack. It’s her dedication to innovation that creates positive outcomes that positions Priya as a lending luminary.  

Priya’s Vision for the Future of Mortgage Servicing  

Priya shows up every day prepared to exceed expectations for Sagent customers, partners, and not to mention, her colleagues. Creating and implementing a platform such as Dara – which has never been successfully carried out before – is not without challenges and setbacks but Priya’s embodiment of Sagent’s core values (Relentless, Relevant, Reliable) always exceeds expectations.  

As the entire real estate industry undergoes significant changes for all stakeholders – from servicers to loan officers, to homeowners – Priya is more confident than ever that the only path forward is for an industry-wide embrace of technology such as AI and real-time data. As Progress in Lending says:  

Throughout her career, Priya’s determination and ability to successfully execute even the most complex projects has led her to Sagent and its ambitious goal to deliver the future of servicing to the industry at large.

Congratulations Priya, we look forward to celebrating this well-deserved recognition!
