“It’s rewarding to see how design helps LAFCU communicate its brand story and connect with people and communities served throughout Michigan,” Swiger said. “I look forward to leading our team in creatively demonstrating that our financial services are cutting-edge, unique and engaging. It’s inspiring to know we’re making a positive difference in our members’ lives.”

Prior to joining LAFCU, she worked as a graphic and web designer for two marketing agencies and a software company.
