PLEASANTON, Calif. - June 4, 2019 - Ellie Mae^®, the leading cloud-based platform provider for the mortgage finance industry, announced today that Boris Kogan, Vice President of Legal, has been selected as one of the Rising Stars by HousingWire Magazine.

'This year's group of Rising Stars represents a rising generation of strong, innovative and motivated leaders taking the mortgage industry by storm. Each of these individuals has accomplished a great deal, but we believe they are still at the early stages of their ultimate impact on the housing economy,' said Clayton Collins, CEO of HousingWire.
