I have a deep respect for FirstOntario. Being a member for over 30 years, I have observed many positive changes while always continuing to be a respected, long standing, community focused credit union. I would hope my approach to board issues being framed around risk, regulatory, legal and financially sound decisions and still allowing for creative ideas that best serve the members, community and organization will be a benefit. I embrace learning new approaches and working with motivated and diverse background individuals. Thank you for the opportunity.
