Jo Ann Villalobos’s Experience

Assistant Vice President/Marketing
Camino FCU
(Banking industry)
May 2008 — Present (1 year 8 months)
My job is to think about Camino FCU every minute of the day in an endeavor to tighten up, polish, and increase its market position, gain business and profitability.
And I do. I am known for my 3am emails, writing notes in the middle of vacation for ideas on a marketing project, and writing on my hand while stopped at the signal light when I have a brainstorm that I can't bear to forget.
I love my job, and I love that the work I do has been well regarded. -
