These volunteers are vital to the credit union movement and serve to keep our member’s best interests at the heart of everything we do.

Meet our Candidates:

Lesly Cruz

I joined the Blue Chip Federal Credit Union several years ago through a family member who worked at Norfolk Southern Railroad. Through my years of credit union membership, I have had the opportunity to work with the staff at a personal level to obtain several types of loans and additional services. Each interaction with BCFCU team has been positive and professional.

A little bit about myself, I have been with Department of Veteran Affairs for 13+ years. Serving in different job capacities ranging from Procurement/Federal Contracts to Revenue Operations. I recently have transitioned to working on a national level reforming Revenue IT Cycles with the Department of Veteran Affairs. During my career as a civil servant I received my certification for Lean Six Sigma and obtained my bachelor’s in Health Administration from Columbia Southern University.

I have always admired the Credit Union’s sound financial management, and I look forward to our Credit Union’s further success. I would welcome the opportunity to give back to the Blue Chip Federal Credit Union membership by serving as a member of the board.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Brian Henry

I have been a Blue Chip FCU member my entire life. My parents taught me the importance of a Credit Union at a very young age. I have seen BCFCU continue to grow and offer more products and services to its membership over the years. I would like to a part of the continued growth and hope my background in Information Technology can help steer BCFCU in the right direction.
