Town & Country Federal Credit Union competitors

Instrumental in the conversion of 94 year old savings and loan into a commercial bank. Also, oversaw the initial public offering of the bank and listing on NASDAQ stock exchange.

I am honored to lead PenFed, America’s second-largest federal credit union, serving 1.8 million members worldwide with $25 billion in assets. During my 5 years as CEO, my team and I have grown PenFed’s assets from $17 billion to $25 billion, increased membership from 1.3 million to 1.8 million, and generated $856 million in net worth -- a 45% increase over the previous 5 years. But we’re most proud of serving our communities. In a nationwide vote conducted by Credit Union Magazine in 2017, I was humbled to be recognized as National Credit Union Hero of the Year. And in 2018, as a result of my team’s efforts, PenFed earned the Large Business Philanthropist of the Year Award for Northern Virginia. I also serve as CEO for the PenFed Foundation in Alexandria, Virginia, which has raised over $35 million to help military veterans heal their wounds, pay their bills, own their first homes, and start their own businesses. Extending the credit union philosophy of “People Helping People,” I volunteer on the boards of the US Chamber of Commerce, the National Symphony Orchestra, Armed Services Arts Partnership, Northern Virginia Technology Council, Greater Washington Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, and Carriage Services (NYSE: CSV). During my military career, I flew Black Hawk helicopters in Korea and trained other Army aviators as a night vision goggle instructor pilot. I also served on the Army Staff in the Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations and Plans, and was later selected to serve as a Special Assistant to the Secretary of the Army. Prior to my assignment at the Pentagon, I taught Economics and Finance at the US Military Academy. In 2015, I was honored by HillVets as one of the 100 most influential and impactful veterans in the United States. My first passion is flying. I’m still an avid pilot and always love adventure!
