VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. - Chartway Credit Union recently announced the promotion of Mindy Estok to chief lending officer. With 27 years of experience at Chartway, Estok most recently served as senior vice president of real estate lending and now joins the credit union's executive leadership team.
In her new role, Estok will provide strategic leadership across Chartway's consumer, real estate and commercial lending teams while helping guide the credit union's broader lending and credit risk management strategy. Her responsibilities also include driving strategic growth, diversification and innovation in support of our members' needs across Chartway's lending portfolio.
"Mindy's commitment to Chartway and our members has made a meaningful impact across the credit union for nearly three decades," said Rob Keatts, executive vice president and chief operating officer of Chartway Credit Union. "I'm excited to see her continued growth at Chartway and am confident her sustained leadership will help move our lending business forward."

Her promotion to chief lending officer marks a pinnacle moment in Estok's nearly 30-year success story with Chartway.
