The New York Credit Union Association has named Sarah Hodgens its new director of compliance.

Hodgens joined the Association in April 2017 as a senior compliance specialist and has more than 15 years of experience in the financial services industry, including seven years in the credit union movement.

Prior to joining the Association, Hodgens served as an EFT trainer at Covera for five years. She also held various managerial and operational positions at several Capital Region-based financial institutions, beginning her career as a part-time teller and advancing to the role of assistant manager.

“Many credit union professionals are already aware that Sarah possesses extensive compliance experience, and we’re excited to have her lead the Association’s compliance department,” said Association president/CEO William J. Mellin. “As rules and regulations continue to evolve — particularly in today’s uncertain time — I’m confident that our credit unions will continue to find Sarah to be a familiar and trusted resource as they seek to understand and meet their regulatory compliance requirements.”
