Looking to gain experience working for a Commercial Mortgage Broker

I'm Dan Ryu. I'm currently one of the organizers of the Seoul Real Estate Investing meetup.

I've posted about our group several times on BP:

I'm interested in gaining experience in the field of Commercial Mortgage Brokering.

I've been President of Operations for the past 15 years in Korea (www.espirit.co.kr) and I plan to one day return to the US where one of my goals is to work as a Commercial Mortgage Broker.

I enjoy underwriting properties and I'm an investor myself. Although I don't have a formal legal background, I graduated from UCLA with honors and was accepted to USC law school (which I turned down to stay in Korea), so I feel I have the necessary ability to read about compliance requirements of different financial institutions. 

I'm willing to work virtually 'birddogging' loans (as another BP poster termed it), helping to organize paperwork and correspondence for others. I wouldn't expect any pay or commission for this type of work.

I'd also be willing to exchange services in return for learning. Some of the skills I have are:

* Writing / Blogging / Emails

* Creating Basic Cartoon Videos (sample: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UhQpdJDUC5o)

* Creating systems/workflows and automation - I am familiar with Smartsheet, Asana, Podio, Wunderlist, Evernote, etc.

* I have been a mentor and informal coach to several associates over the past 10 years.

I'd also love to be able to talk with others who are interested in discussing the topic of: being a Commercial Mortgage Broker, Mortgage Loan Origination, etc. We can Skype, chat, Google hangout, email, etc., depending on your convenience.
