CENTRAL COAST, Calif. — Suzanne Leedale has joined CoastHills Credit Union as its vice president of branch operations after spending the past seven years as CEO of SLO Credit Union.
“Suzanne’s experience as an industry leader is a tremendous asset as we reach out to a field of membership that now includes all of five counties on the Central Coast,” CoastHills President and CEO Jeff York said. “This position will be crucial as we expand into new territories.”
Born and raised in Springfield, Ohio, Leedale started her financial career in the U.S. Army’s Finance Corps where she processed payroll, issued travel payments, and made sure that deployed soldiers’ requests for needed funds were met. Upon leaving the Army, she was hired by a credit union in Fairbanks, Alaska, where she worked her way up from financial service rep to Information Technology manager.
