Dan Gjeldum and John Noldan have joined CrossCountry Mortgage both as executive vice president of mortgage lending in Chicago. 

Gjeldum brings 29 years of experience to his role, while Noldan brings 25 years. Both lenders will continue to operate their businesses independently as they expand their market presence, recruit top talent and accelerate growth. 

“We wanted to be part of an organization that’s completely focused on being the best mortgage company in the business,” said Gjeldum. “At this point in my career, the opportunity to build something new, continue growing and do it alongside an incredible team was extremely appealing. CCM provides the resources to make that happen.”

“The mortgage industry continues to evolve, and it’s important to align with an organization that’s investing in the future,” said Noldan. “CrossCountry Mortgage stood out because of its commitment to growth, innovation and supporting high-performing teams. We’re excited to be part of that momentum.”
