I’m a lifelong learner who enjoys reading and writing, especially when I can pair it with time outdoors during the summer—whether it’s hiking, kayaking, swimming, or boating. As the eldest of four siblings, I love spending time with my family and making memories together.

Since joining Buckeye, I’ve grown through three different roles—starting as a Teller, then Teller Supervisor, and now proudly serving as a Personal Banker. I’m passionate about learning new things, both in my personal life and at work. What I love most about working at Buckeye is the opportunity to truly help people reach their financial goals. Before joining the credit union world, I worked in retail, which I enjoyed, but I was looking for a more meaningful way to make a difference—and I’ve found that here.
