INTRODUCING...
TERESA BOYER Teresa Boyer began her career with WFCU in June of 2016. She has a combined total of seventeen years in the credit union industry and was recently promoted to a Consumer Loan Specialist. Her long tenure in the finance industry has been one of her greatest accomplishments, along with raising her children and owning her own business for more than seven years. When she’s not at work, Teresa enjoys the company of her grandchildren, taking walks, and working in her yard, where she gardens and decorates. She finds comfort, peace, and reassurance listening to her favorite genres of music and artists. We asked Teresa what her favorite part of working at WFCU is, and she said, “I love working with our members. Seeing the joy on a member’s face when efforts to raise their credit score pay off is very rewarding, especially when it allows them to purchase a home or vehicle. I also couldn’t ask for more supportive co-workers. The teamwork at the credit union is great!” Watch for more WFCU team members in upcoming newsletters.
