More recently, Gagliano has helped Dark Matter find its footing as an independent company combining the agility of a startup with the pedigree of a mature and experienced provider. Gagliano\u2019s vision for Dark Matter and the team he has assembled to execute on that vision have earned the confidence of banks, credit unions and mortgage lenders nationwide.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am incredibly proud of what we\u2019ve built at Dark Matter, and I am confident the company\u2019s best days are ahead,\u201d said Gagliano. \u201cAfter years of working with Sean, I have absolute confidence in his leadership and in his team\u2019s readiness to execute on the strategy we\u2019ve developed together. I look forward to supporting Sean and our clients as I transition to executive chairman, knowing that Dark Matter is in the most capable of hands.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gagliano\u2019s decision to step down as CEO is part of a broader plan to spend more time with family, though he will remain actively involved as executive chairman to support Dugan, the team and clients during the transition.<\/p>\n<p>Dugan brings over 25 years of mortgage industry expertise, including 14 years alongside Gagliano at Dark Matter and its predecessor. Known for his client-focused approach, Dugan has played a pivotal role in shaping Dark Matter\u2019s customer-centric culture and product offerings.
