Empol was senior vice president of public affairs and industry outreach for the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco.
“Jeremy’s experience, leadership, and deep commitment to our industry make him the right choice to lead California’s Credit Unions into the future,” Donna Bland, chair of California’s Credit Unions and president and CEO of Golden 1 Credit Union, said in the release. “His vision and energy will help credit unions continue to thrive while delivering exceptional value to their members.”
