Kathy Thomson, who joined the Idaho Credit Union League as a supply clerk in 1973 when there were more than 160 credit unions throughout the Gem State, is now the league's new president/CEO.

Thomson, 60, replaced Christopher Johnson who was dismissed by the league's board of directors in November, just five months after he was appointed president/CEO. Johnson replaced Alan Cameron who retired in June 2013.

When Johnson left, Thomson was named interim president/CEO. The Idaho league board offered the top job to Thomson on Feb. 11. She officially assumed her duties on Feb. 12, becoming the first woman president/CEO in the league's 78-year history.
