05 · About

Back to Fundamentals.

Three decades of brand and marketing work, fifteen of them as a leader inside the credit union industry, including nine years as SVP/CMO of the Credit Union Executives Society (CUES). What I’ve learned is that the essentials don’t change. Know who you are, say it clearly, and show up consistently. Everything else is tactics.
