In addition, Munoz plays a pivotal role in shaping ARDRI's next-generation automated platform—one designed to redefine the non-QM lending experience through speed, transparency, and confidence.

Driven by a personal philosophy that "he who conquers himself is the mightiest warrior," Munoz is as passionate about mentorship and continuous learning as he is about delivering results. Whether coaching others, hitting the softball field with his daughter, or tackling home DIY projects, his heart for service and growth shines through.
