A letter from the editor
Leadership is taking center stage this issue as Elizabeth Mix, Courtney Valvo, and our cover feature, Mae Mackey, showcase three powerful paths to influence — driving innovation, elevating client experience, and championing mentorship and growth. Their impact echoes throughout our Women in Banking & Mortgage honorees and Sandra J. Pattie Award recipients, leaders who continue to raise the bar across the Northeast. Together, these stories celebrate the talent, vision, and momentum shaping the industry’s next era.
