AltCap welcomes new Vice President of Operations Patty Becker

AltCap, an impact-focused small business lender, is pleased to announce the hiring of Patty Becker as its first Vice President of Operations. 

AltCap has grown rapidly and expanded into additional communities, creating a need for an operations leader to help drive results and grow community impact with clear strategic direction and streamlined processes for entrepreneurs. Becker’s addition will help AltCap expand its mission of providing fair access to capital for small businesses and communities across the Heartland and beyond. 

“AltCap plays such an important role in the Kansas City community and beyond to provide fair access to capital where it hasn’t been provided previously and I feel privileged to bring my unique skills to the organization to grow and expand the community impact,” Becker said. “I cannot tell you how excited I am to be a part of such a great organization that supports business opportunities for women and other minorities.”
 
Becker joins AltCap with more than 20 years of experience in the finance industry in operations, compliance, and human resources. She served in leadership roles at MassMutual Financial Group and recently as a consultant with Support KC. Becker is a graduate of the University of Central Missouri and proudly serves as a board member for MOCSA.

“We’re excited to welcome Patty to the AltCap team and for her to take on this critical leadership role during a time of unprecedented expansion and opportunity,” said AltCap CEO Ruben Alonso III. “Her experience and expertise in operations and strategic planning as well as fostering a success and customer-oriented and accountable environment will help fuel the continued development, growth and impact of AltCap.”
 
Becker’s arrival comes on the heels of AltCap’s service expansion into Colorado and Texas, the launch of its affiliate AltCap California and growth throughout Kansas and Missouri.
 
This expansion allows AltCap to finance more small businesses and community-driven real estate development projects that create more economically inclusive communities. Entrepreneurs in these states can access AltCap's range of financing products, including microloans, small business loans, New Markets Tax Credits (NMTC), and business development services that promote  the growth of small and medium-sized enterprises.
 
Since 2005, AltCap has deployed more than $300 million in capital to job-creating small business investments and community-focused real estate development projects.
