Credit union approaches 40K members in market
Growing up on a Valley farm, Steve Hauschild tackled arduous jobs like clearing rocks from crop fields.
Years later, he would clear the way for one of the nation’s largest credit unions to sprout in a new market.
Five years ago this month, Hauschild was hired by Boeing Employees Credit Union as market leader and director of business lending in Eastern Washington, which was new territory for the financial cooperative with deep roots in the Puget Sound area.
Since then, Hauschild has helped BECU establish three new branches and a home loan center in the greater Spokane area. The credit union also has a growing foothold in North Idaho.
