Fabian will continue supporting the handoff to Stubbs through Dec. 31, 2025, a press release confirmed.
“Having Brett and Gary collaborate during this transition has been incredibly valuable,” said Yvonne Ketchum, president of Kind Lending. “This thoughtful approach allows Brett to step in with a deep understanding of our operations while honoring Gary’s foundational role. It positions us for continued strength and long-term success.”
Stubbs brings more than 25 years of financial and operational expertise to the role. He most recently served as CFO at Kinecta Federal Credit Union from 2012 to 2025, per his LinkedIn bio.
“Gary has been a pillar of Kind Lending since day one,” said Glenn Stearns, founder and CEO of Kind Lending. “We are profoundly grateful for his leadership and the financial framework he built. His guidance has been instrumental to our growth. At the same time, we are excited to welcome Brett, whose expertise and vision will help propel Kind Lending into its next chapter.”
In April, Kind Lending hired Jennifer Folk as its chief operating officer.
