Fifth Largest Credit Union in Texas With New Name Appoints New CEO

Dana Sisk has been appointed the new president/CEO for Rally Credit Union in Corpus Christi, Texas, succeeding Gerry Morrow, who retired at the end of April following 18 years of service.

After Morrow was appointed CEO in March 2017, the credit union increased assets from $2.5 billion to its current assets of $4.2 billion, while loans grew from $2.1 billion to $3.6 billion, and membership expanded from 152,271 to 220,467, according to NCUA Call Reports.

Rally Credit Union, which changed its name from NavyArmy Community Credit Union last November and launched its new brand in March, is ranked the fifth largest financial cooperative by assets in the Lone Star State, according to Depositaccounts.com.

Before joining Rally in 2006 as CFO, Sisk was CFO for Horizon Credit Union and worked as a commercial loan officer for NationsBank of Tennessee.

In 2009, she was promoted to COO and was named EVP in 2017.

“Dana has played a tremendously huge part in the success of the credit union, exhibiting how strongly she embraces our mission to the members and staff,” Rally Board Chair John Chapman said in a prepared statement. “Dana’s transition to president and CEO has been a methodical process over the years guided by our succession planning strategy. My congratulations to Dana, the management team and the staff as they make the future the best years yet for Rally.”

During an all-staff address, Sisk said, “As I begin my first day as your president and CEO, I want to share my confidence in the bright future ahead of us. I am honored to have been selected by our board of directors to lead Rally Credit Union into that future. Rally’s success story began in 1955. Our success was built on a simple principle: Each of us working together every day to serve our members. As our purpose statement says, we rally every day to improve lives and drive possibilities. I look forward to our bright future together as members of team Rally!”
