KENTON__ Quest Federal Credit Union has announced the appointment of Austin  Oglesbee and Jennifer Hattery to the organization’s Credit Committee. 

The new committee members replace Mark Light and Travis King who have both relocated out of state.

Austin Oglesbee began his training with Quest in 2022 as a Board Intern and has learned several areas of operation of the credit union and was a solid fit for the credit committee based on his education and business background. Austin is a graduate of Upper Scioto Valley school and achieved an associate’s degree from Rhodes State College. 

For the last  11 years, Austin has worked as the Sales Manager for WIWA which is an industry leader in industrial coatings along with operating the family farm with his father and brother. Austin  is married to Brittanie, and they have a 9-year-old son and a 4-year-old daughter. 

Jennifer Hattery also began her career with Quest serving as a Board Intern since 2022.  Jennifer has experience in many business and professional areas and proved to be a quick  study and a strong candidate for the Credit Committee. Jennifer is a graduate of Kenton  Senior High School and currently works as the Adult Programming Coordinator for the Mary  Lou Johnson Hardin County District Library and also serves as an Assistant with the United Way of Hardin County.

Jennifer and her husband Brian reside in Kenton with their four  daughters and are active members of the Abundant Life Assembly of God Church among  several other area organizations. Jennifer’s passion for her community and giving back is a  product of working in the family business of her parents, Tom and Cathy Taylor, who were  the former owners of BR Brunson’s Family Restaurant where Jennifer interacted with many  customers and organizations in our community. 

Sarah Wirbel, President of the Board stated “Quest is pleased to have tremendous  volunteer interns that are learning something new all the time and are always open to  learning more about the operations of the credit union and the duties of our Board and  Committees. Austin and Jennifer have caught on very quickly and are going to do great  things for our community and our members serving on our Credit Committee.” 

The Credit Committee role is to set and manage the lending and other related policies of  the credit union along with reviewing loans and ensuring loan quality standards are adhered  to by the loan department. A Credit Committee member is an elected position and with the  mid-term departure of Light and King, the Board of Directors took the action of  appointment to keep the Credit Committee strong and functioning as intended.
