Lindsay Barbera, CMB, AMP, CMS, will lead Atlantic Bay’s Louisiana team as Area Sales Manager. A Baton Rouge native and LSU graduate, Barbera has spent more than 20 years in Louisiana’s mortgage industry, cultivating relationships across the state’s business and housing communities throughout a career spanning servicing, operations, product development, and sales. She will report to Atlantic Bay’s EVP and Southern Regional Manager, Christopher Brown.
“Growing in Louisiana isn’t about showing up with a playbook. It’s about understanding the people, earning trust and being part of the community,” said Barbera. “Atlantic Bay brings an incredible culture and support system that gives our team more ways to serve homebuyers and industry partners. Put that together with a team that understands Louisiana, and I think we have a strong foundation for long-term success.”
“Louisiana is a natural next step in Atlantic Bay’s growth across the South,” shared Brown. “We want our Mortgage Bankers to have the infrastructure and resources to compete at a high level without losing the local relationships and personal approach that have made them successful in the first place. Lindsay knows this market, knows its people and knows what it takes to grow here.”
Founded in Virginia Beach in 1996, Atlantic Bay has grown from a four-person startup to an award-winning, multi-state mortgage lender with more than 100 branches, 600-plus employees and a footprint that now stretches across much of the South, including Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Texas and Louisiana. The Louisiana expansion comes amid continued momentum across the region, where Atlantic Bay has added 12 new team members since July, including Justin Atterberry, who leads the company’s growth efforts in Texas.
