Julie Olson

Senior COMMERCIAL RELATIONSHIP MANAGER
Hi, I'm Julie. Coming to you with nearly 25 years of financial institution experience and as a native to Upper Michigan, I promise to craft and offer a dynamic solution to help you reach your business goals. I thoroughly enjoy developing a deep understanding of my client's financial position and working with them to provide local funding. In my free time, you can find me biking, taking long walks with my dog, and spending time with my family.

Nick Kreis

COMMERCIAL RELATIONSHIP MANAGER

Hi, I'm Nick. I work with members by listening and learning, then plan and propose how to achieve their business goals. The power of locally funded loans, decisions, and service allow me to deliver an unmatched experience. I take pride in tailoring each relationship to fit the member's needs and eliminate any "cookie-cutter" approach, as no two businesses or business owners are alike.

Matt Nord

VP, CHIEF LENDING OFFICER
Hi, I'm Matt. Like Embers Credit Union, I was born and raised in the Upper Peninsula and have an understanding of what UP businesses need to thrive. To be successful in business, it is typically because of the following three things, being the first to market, the best/highest quality, and being the most cost-effective. At Embers, we are ALL THREE! We get the closing table quickly, provide market-leading customer service, and highly competitive rates and structure. Our team welcomes the opportunity to show current and prospective members what makes us different.
