Lake Trust Credit Union – Michigan

• Designed the organizational infrastructure of a newly developed IT department to fully support the long term growth and expansion of $3.0 billion organization.
• Conducted comprehensive industry technology analysis to provide principals with a strategic plan for a company-wide technology upgrade. The plan was developed and implemented.
• Developed, implemented, and maintained a Cybersecurity program that provided better protection to the organization assets and strengthened the organization’s reputation. The program included: cybersecurity governance and risk management; cybersecurity risk assessment; technical controls; incident response planning; vendor management; staff training; cyber intelligence and information sharing; and cyber insurance.
• Identified various critical business processes. Formulated and led implementation projects, which resulted in improved operational efficiencies and estimated cost savings of over $240,500. Such projects included ATM network migration and upgrade, Check 21 Branch Capture, and telecom reduction and billing consolidation.
• Created a consolidated data warehouse that contains data drawn from several databases maintained by (deferent) business units together with historical and summary information.
• Developed several decision support applications in which current and historical data are comprehensively analyzed and explored to identify useful trends and create summaries of the data, to support high-level decision making.
• Designed and implemented a reliable, efficient, and secured Wide Area Network (WAN) infrastructure utilizing Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) technology to interconnect 25-Branch Local Area Networks (LANs) and 42 ATM machines.
• Played a leadership role in the selection and implementation of the IP Telephony technology within the organization to develop the organization’s Unified Messaging System. The project resulted in the enhancement of business processes, member/customer services, and a yearly cost savings of over $80,000.
