After completing a successful military service in the Louisiana National Guard, Tanya embarked on a six-year career in Retail Sales, working for two very well known companies. She ran some of the largest sales teams while maintaining the highest level of customer service.
Tanya then started a five-year career with Capital One Bank (formerly Hibernia Bank). In 2006, Tanya was promoted to Team Manager and was responsible for a team of 15 bankers and $30 million in consumer loans. She also helped manage the outbound team, a total of 60 bankers. She had numerous other responsibilities, ultimately leading to the growth and security of Capital One’s customers, both business and consumer.
In September of 2007, Tanya made the easy transition to Allied Affiliated Funding. She now covers the Louisiana, Houston, East Texas, Texarkana and New York markets. However, she can assist businesses anywhere in the United States.
Allied primarily operates in a geographic region that has lower factoring activity relative to other regions (see below). Management believes this represents an opportunity as the regions in which it operates have lower relative penetration than other parts of the country.
The factoring industry as a whole is expected to experience contraction in 2008 and 2009 due to the contraction of available credit from lending institutions to factoring companies. With less capital to deploy industry wide, factoring businesses with excellent and growing lending relationships, such as Allied, will be able to take advantage of the strong demand and lower overall competition.
