Over a decade ago, Nanci found herself in a financial bind—until a credit union saved the day. That moment of CU magic changed everything, launching her career from teller to EVP at the Louisiana Credit Union League. A 2015 CUDE graduate, Nanci didn’t just embrace the movement—she became its loudest champion, mentoring, speaking, and even co-facilitating the program in 2023. Named a Credit Union Rock Star in 2017, she’s now an award-winning innovator and international speaker, inspiring audiences on empathy, leadership, and the power of credit unions. Nanci also loves everything about a healthy culture—from building trust and psychological safety to fostering purpose-driven teams.
