About Julie Ferguson
I spent sixteen years at First Tech Federal Credit Union in the Pacific Northwest before going out on my own and starting JRF Consulting Services in 2009. My financial services career began as a part-time Teller and took me on a journey that included stops as a Loan Officer, Branch Manager, Director of Operations, and Business Development Director.
While at First Tech, I developed strong relationships with SEGs like Microsoft, Amazon.com and Google. When First Tech became Microsoft’s credit union, my staff and I grew the relationship from 0 to 15,000 members in 7 quick years. We were problem solvers for our SEGs and the community, and focused on building trust and creating opportunities to educate employers and their employees on a regular basis.
