Background

About Michael Riley

I am a dedicated professional in the commercial finance industry with a solid foundation in real estate finance and business development. Holding a bachelor's degree in International Relations from Sacramento State, I have effectively translated my academic background into a successful career in finance. Starting my career at the World Trade Center Global Ties, I quickly transitioned into a role as a Business Banking Officer at Five Star Bank. Here, I excelled in originating new SBA 7a loans and establishing deposit relationships nationwide. This experience paved the way for my current role as a Business Development Officer at New Day Business Finance. At New Day, I focus on originating new commercial real estate (CRE) loans, leveraging my expertise in business development, sales, and facilitating financing for small businesses and investors. My commitment to excellence is evident in my consistent performance and ability to navigate complex financial landscapes to deliver tailored solutions for clients. My academic and professional achievements reflect my dedication and skill. I was awarded a scholarship to play high school baseball at a distinguished private school. I also earned a place on the Honor's List during university. Beyond my professional endeavors, I am an active Muay Thai fighter, boasting a record of 4-1 with two TKO victories in the first round. I hold a strong passion for travel, the outdoors, snowboarding, and chess. With a proven track record in business development and a drive to help businesses thrive, I continue to make a significant impact in the commercial real estate finance sector.
