APPLETON, WI (January 16, 2026) |
Fox Communities Credit Union is excited to announce that we have promoted the following Regional Branch Managers to the position of Assistant Vice President, Regional Branch Manager.
- Tara Birling
- Karen Dietzen
- John Hessenthaler
- Nicole Karnopp
- Tricia Villarreal
- Amanda Zeinert
This leadership team began their journey as Senior Branch Operations Managers—responsible not only for leading their individual branches and supporting daily member needs, but also for driving cross-functional projects and contributing to committees across Fox. As Fox evolved, so did their roles. We redefined expectations, refreshed responsibilities, and introduced a new leadership model—one that asked them to dive deeper into branch operations, engage more meaningfully with teams, and lead a hub of branches.
“Their leadership is essential to guiding our retail-branch team members, fostering collaboration across teams throughout Fox, and driving key initiatives, reporting, and growth within the retail-branch network. The scope of their responsibilities is vast –and so is their influence. These leaders play a pivotal role in everything from coaching, goal setting, promoting products and services, and deepening the member experience, while overseeing branch operations and cultivating a positive work environment.” said Tommie Preslaski, Chief Experience Officer at Fox Communities Credit Union.
