Littleton, Colo. — Jessica Vartanian, VP, Project Implementation and Impact with Red Rocks Credit Union in Littleton, has been named one of the five Finalists in the 2017 CUES Next Top Credit Union Exec challenge, powered by Currency and in partnership with DDJ Myers Ltd.

CUES Next Top Credit Union Exec applicants are age 35 or under, employed by a credit union, and create a short video outlining the details of an innovative project they’re working on at their credit union. The online public voted for their favorite, and along with a judging panel, narrowed the field to the Top 15. From there, a second judging panel selected five Finalists. Jessica Vartanian, 34, submitted details of her re-engineered Customer Relationship Management program, and won one of the coveted Finalists’ spots.

Vartanian wins a $6,000 prize package; including coaching sessions from challenge sponsor DDJ Myers, and registration, accommodation and airfare to CUES Network™ in Las Vegas, October 10-12, 2017. While in Las Vegas, Vartanian will compete against the other four Finalists for the grand prize, a CUES educational package valued at $20,000, and the honor of being named the 2017 CUES Next Top Credit Union Exec on October 12.
