Role at National VA Loans
Jason O’Donnell is the Co-Founder and Creative Director of National VA Loans and National Mortgage Center. National VA Loans is a veteran-focused mortgage brand powered by Stride Bank, N.A., NMLS #466690.
With a background in brand development, digital marketing, and mortgage strategy, Jason leads the creative vision and brand architecture behind both brands. His focus is on building trust through design, storytelling, and technology so VA loan programs are easier for veterans and military families to understand.
National VA Loans and National Mortgage Center are separate brands on Stride Bank infrastructure. Jason’s public work includes the Homes for the Brave initiative and veteran-facing education on this site. He is based at the Kansas City headquarters, 10020 NW Prairie View Rd, Suite 100, Kansas City, MO 64153.
What he is responsible for
- Brand and education. Guides, calculators, and campaign creative that explain the VA benefit without implying a government affiliation.
- Homes for the Brave. Outreach aimed at veterans who have not used the home loan benefit yet.
- Two brands, one bank. National VA Loans for VA borrowers. National Mortgage Center for broader mortgage topics. Both are powered by Stride Bank.
