Bio: 
Vernon Beckford is the CEO of Diversified Lending Solutions. Mr. Beckford has fifteen years of experience and leadership in investment management, debt and equity joint ventures, commercial mortgage origination, and distressed loan workouts.  Concurrent with his roles at large companies, he had made early-stage investments in tech and operating businesses as well as commercial real estate.

Prior to launching DLS, Vernon spent five years on the Investments team at Global Atlantic Financial Group, formerly Goldman Sachs Reinsurance, where he helped build the Real Estate Group, which invested opportunistically in senior, mezzanine, and bridge loans, commercial mortgage-backed securities, and participated in joint ventures on ground-up real estate developments.
