Inspired Leaders Series Welcomes Alumnus Thanh Roettele '94

The Spring 2022 Inspired Leaders Series welcomed alumnus Thanh Roettele, managing director of mortgage finance for JPMorgan Chase’s Corporate Client Banking and Specialized Industries. Roettele drew a large crowd with more than 120 students filling the McDonnell Auditorium to listen to his candid stories about his life, career, family, and everything in between during a fireside chat-style interview with Dean Becton. Following the presentation, he had lunch with select students interested in careers in the financial services industry before speaking in a class of finance majors about the industry, career opportunities, and his experience working for JPMorgan Chase.

Roettele is originally from Pass Christian, Mississippi, and graduated from Southern Miss with a BSBA in finance. He has more than 25 years of experience with JPMorgan Chase and, in his current role, oversees the business responsible for coverage of non-bank mortgages, residential and multi-family originators, mortgage REITs, and services throughout the United States.
