Stephanie Lyon, our VP of Compliance and Contracts, had a heart-to-heart with the amazing Denise Guira. You won't believe the treasure trove of knowledge she dropped. First off, Denise is a rockstar – Senior VP of Integrated Risk at Mid Florida Credit Union. And let me tell you, her take on risk-based compliance? It's like a light bulb moment.
