On October 9th all SCCU staff will participate in a donut blitz at a school in your community. What’s a donut blitz? We show up, with tons of donuts and a promo flyer and pass them out! We are spreading cheer, brightening people’s day AND sharing the great products that SCCU offers. After the blitz, you’ll meet at a park or beach in your community to do a clean up! The Community Engagement team will send out an email with more info on where your clean up will be.

Give us a broad overview of your job.
I work with my team to create and facilitate trainings to new and current staff.
Now, how would you describe your job to a 5 year old?
I would probably say the same as above, I don’t know how to talk to children.
How long have you been with SCCU?
A little over two years this time around!
Who’s on your team?
Kirsten Nevin and Megan Landgreen.
Do you have any recent accomplishments?
In June I passed my exam and am now a Certified Credit Union Financial Counselor!
What does a typical workday look like for you?
The day always starts with lots of caffeine. The rest depends on what trainings we have going on that day/week or if there is any upcoming trainings we need to learn/create.
What’s something people don’t know about your job?
We LOVE when people reach out with items they would like additional assistance with or something they would like to learn more about.
What does your ideal day off look like?
Going for a nice long walk with my dogs, get stuff done around my house, and then have a fire/relax in my yard.
Did you plant a garden this summer? Did anything grow?
I only planted flowers this summer, and they all grew!
We’re at karaoke night but you can’t look at the lyrics, what song are you singing?
This Must be the Place by Talking Heads or Mr. Brightside by The Killers

Dill Pickle Soup
If no one ever sneezed again, how long do you think it would take you to notice?
I can almost guarantee I would never notice
If you could breed 2 different species of animals together, which would they be, and explain your work.
Pigeon and Racoon, head, and wings of pigeon, rest the racoon. Live fast, eat trash.
If you could go back to school for anything, what would it be?
I would go back for a business degree.
What is your comfort sitcom?
I usually have Schitts Creek, Parks and Rec, and The Office on rotation.

Who you report again?
Jaden makes nominating someone for TMM easy. Jaden is our marketing intern, but you’d never know it with how much work he takes on and how many departments he works in. J’s got the kind of personality that makes being at work truly pleasurable. He is always smiling and positive, and says yes to anything that helps our our little credit union keep moving forward. Thank you for everything you do Jaden, I don’t think you get to hear it enough!
“
Who do report to again?
In a true team effort display, Dawne voluntarily cut her PTO short by 2 days to jump in and help collections catch up. She graciously put in extra hours and effort despite it being outside her job description. Dawne dares to care about other departments and the organization overall. We are lucky to have such a selfless soul on our team!
