Congratulations to Nikki Settlemyre!

Nikki Settlemyre is our new Raymond Branch Manager.

Great NorthWest Federal Credit Union is proud to announce our newest Branch Manager – Nikki Settlemyre! Nikki has been with the credit union for 12 years and brings years of operational and training experience to the position at our Raymond Branch location.

Our Marketing Manager, Karla Peterson sat down with Nikki and asked a few questions to help introduce Nikki to our community members and get to know her a little better.

 

Q: What do you like to do in your free time?

A: First as a mom of 2 teenagers free time isn't really something I find very often. I enjoying hosting my friends and family for food & football. I watch some college games, GO UW! I’m also an avid Seahawks fan and support them even when they make it hard to. I also enjoy my downtime with a good book and get outside when the weather permits.

 

Q: Did you grow up in Pacific County or move to the area?

A: I am a Pacific County kid, born and raised in Raymond. I graduated from Raymond High School and like most graduates, I couldn’t wait to move away. I spent nearly 3 years in the Army with one year stationed overseas. After that adventure – I could not wait to come home! I met my husband locally and we settled down and started our family. I could not imagine raising our kids anywhere else.

 

Q: What most excites you about your new position?

A: I started with the credit union in 2012 as a part-time teller for the Raymond Branch. I worked my way up to a full-time position later in 2013.  I continued working as a Member Service Representative for 6 years before advancing into our Training Department, where I continued working mostly out of Raymond, but away from the teller line, upstairs. In Training, I worked with all our new employees and facilitated training for current employees. I am sure my years in training and operations will serve me well as I assist the Raymond Branch MSRs with their ongoing growth and commitment to our members. I’m most excited about being back downstairs in the branch, interacting with members and getting more involved in community events with my team.
