Ohio Healthcare Federal Credit Union has chosen Christy O'Connell, its current EVP/COO, to take over as CEO in two years.

O'Connell will assume leadership of the Columbus-based credit union ($85.1 million in assets, 13,060 members) in June 2020 when Bill Butler, its current president/CEO, retires.

O'Connell joined Ohio HealthCare FCU as CFO in 2004 when it ended the year with $27.3 million in assets. As a member of the senior management team, she has helped the credit union more than triple in size.
