John Green

Founder & COO at Nada Inc

Speaker

Building Nada has been an incredible journey—combining my passion for innovation with a mission to reshape real estate ownership. Before launching Nada, I spent over a decade in the mortgage industry, leading teams in strategy, innovation, and risk management. These experiences sharpened my ability to build high-performing teams and forge strategic partnerships.

But my path didn’t start in finance. In my early twenties, I was a punk rock vocalist and lyricist, signed to an independent label, touring, and recording albums. That chapter of my life instilled resilience, creativity, and the ability to connect with people—skills that have been just as critical in business as they were on stage.

I have been a member of the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers (ASCAP) since 2006, a contributing member of the Forbes Finance Council, and an Advisory Board member of IMN’s Home Equity Capital Markets Forum.

My journey from music to mortgage banking to fintech is a testament to the power of adaptability, lifelong learning, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.
