Rhonda Brady

I am a seasoned data and technology leader with a passion for delivering innovative and impactful solutions that enhance user and member experiences, drive business growth, and optimize operational efficiency. I have a proven track record of leading complex, cross-functional, and enterprise-wide projects in various domains, such as financial services, energy expense management, sustainability analytics, and healthcare.

Most recently, I served as the Vice President Enterprise Data, Solutions & Project Management at Horizon Credit Union, where I led application and development for legacy and organization strategic initiatives to support vision and roadmap deliverables. Horizon Credit Union is a 2-billion-dollar financial institution spanning twenty-eight branches, serving over 100,000 members in four states. During my tenure, I served as the technology owner, in partnership with product owners, to establish multi-year roadmaps for people, process, and technology, including two merger and acquisitions, to delivery member-centric core conversions, enterprise solutions and business technology outcomes.

I am currently seeking new opportunities to leverage my skills and experience in a dynamic and collaborative environment that values diversity, excellence, and customer-centricity. I have a passion for cultivating relationships developed through trust, leading a serve-first culture, by example, evangelizing empowerment, purpose-driven contributions, and demonstrating authentic relationship management to encourage investment intended to elevate value of experience.
