On our most recent episode, Jennifer Vader O'Callaghan joins us to talk about her life since graduation which led her to becoming the SVP of Marketing and Analytics at Numerica Credit Union. She talks about her passion for credit unions and the things you should know about banking with one.
Jennifer graduated from Valley Catholic in 1992. After getting her AA at Cottey College in 1994, she travelled around the world and ended up in London. There she spent several years on an anthropological quest to study and understand Irish pub culture. In other words, she served a lot of drinks as a barmaid, learned how to play pool and change a keg, and met and married her soulmate, Brian. After graduating from University of London, Goldsmiths, with a BA in Communications, Jen worked at London Underground as a Business Analyst and UBS Warburg as Executive Assistant to the Chief of Staff. She moved back to the US in 2000 and spent 15 years working at various advertising and digital agencies for clients like Microsoft, AT&T, and Motorola. Currently, she is SVP of Marketing and Analytics at Numerica Credit Union, a regional credit union based in Spokane Valley, WA with over 160,000 members. She is the Chair of the Board of Trustees of both Vanessa Behan (a Spokane based Crisis Nursery), and Women Helping Women Fund (a grant-making fund for non-profits), and teaches adjunct classes at Gonzaga University's MBA program.
Jen has four beautiful and brilliant children - Caitlin, Patrick, Michael and Sean - and four unruly, but much loved, dogs.
