2026 Annual Meeting

I ask for your support to continue serving on the OneAZ Board, where I have contributed for six years. As a mother, small business owner, attorney, and OneAZ member for nearly 20 years, I understand how important it is to have a financial partner you can trust—one that keeps your money safe, makes it easy to bank online and on your phone, and is there when you need a home, auto, or small business loan.
My work is rooted in community. I have served on the Littleton Elementary School District Board (Avondale), volunteered with St. Luke’s Food Pantry, and collaborated with local organizations like Local First. These experiences help me stay focused on the financial challenges families and businesses face every day.
I am committed to ethical, member-focused leadership that keeps OneAZ strong, responsive, and innovative—and I would be honored to continue serving you. Thanks for your trust/support.

I am excited to express my interest in joining the OneAZ Credit Union Board of Directors. With over eleven years of experience in financial leadership, including in external audit at KPMG and director-level roles at Amazon and GoDaddy, I bring expertise in financial oversight and risk management. As a current Director at an S&P 500 technology company, I bring a strong focus on automation and AI-driven efficiency. I am committed to utilizing my experience navigating complex regulatory environments and managing change to help OneAZ thrive in today's rapidly evolving financial, regulatory, and technology landscapes. I respectfully and humbly ask for your vote

For the past year, I have had the privilege of serving in an advisory capacity to the OneAZ Board, gaining firsthand insight into the stewardship this role requires. I am a proud Arizona business owner and Founder & CEO of Novle, a multicultural marketing and community-relations agency that helps prominent brands build trust and integrate meaningfully into the communities they serve.
My career has focused on strengthening Arizona’s local economy, including close collaboration with Local First Arizona. I serve on the boards of the Phoenix Committee on Foreign Relations and the West Valley Regional Chamber. I am completing my Executive Master’s in Global Management at Thunderbird School of Global Management and hold a Stanford University LBAN business-scaling certification.
I bring deep insight into Arizona’s communities and members’ real-world needs. I respectfully ask for your vote and the opportunity to help guide OneAZ forward with trust, mission, and long-term prosperity.

Dear fellow members,
A special welcome to our new members in Yuma.
I served the Army 3 years, NAU 28 years, ASU 12 years, my local animal shelter 6 years and OneAZ for over 30 years. I enjoy helping organizations and their associates achieve their goals. Our CU is always striving to make a difference. At OneAZ we believe we exist to serve our members, associates and our communities. We have grown assets to over $4 billion and have increased staff to over 600 to better serve you. Our OneAz foundation has given back over $2.5 million dollars to non profits in our
communities. It has been rewarding to watch this organization achieve its goals. I am asking for your vote so that I may continue to serve you by making OneAZ the best financial institution in Arizona.
Thank you,
Sam
