WORK HISTORY
Director of Branches @Consumers Credit Union
IL, US
Welcome to Consumers Credit Union (CCU) where our mission is to empower our members to live better lives.We’re a financial institution just like a bank, except not exactly. Banks have customers, but because we’re a not-for-profit, member-owned credit union, we have members. And because we’re not a bank, we don’t drive up profits just because shareholders demand it. Instead, we focus on driving up member happiness through low loan rates, high deposit rates and low- or no-fee products and services. We focus on things like transparency, simplicity, helpfulness, integrity, positivity and inclusion – and we always put our members first.
EDUCATION
Northern Illinois University
