SNELLVILLE, GEORGIA, UNITED STATES, July 1, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ — The African-American Credit Union Coalition (AACUC), announced that Ty Muse is the 2022 Honoree of the AACUC’s Pete Crear Lifetime Achievement Award. Muse is currently the President and CEO of Visions Federal Credit Union, a $5.6 billion financial institution headquartered in Endwell, NY serving over 230,000 members primarily in three states (New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania).

Muse’s roots are southern, but he was raided in Wallkill, NY. He attended the Northeastern University in Boston, MA on a track scholarship where he attained his undergraduate degree, master’s in accounting and his MBA. Muse has over 30 years in the financial services industry working at institutions such as PricewaterhouseCoopers, Goldman Sachs (Controller at Archon Group – Real Estate Division), GE Asset Management, and Hudson Valley Federal Credit Union (now known as HVCU). He is also a Certified Public Accountant.

Muse serves on a number of boards both locally and across the country in an effort to support both the region
which he resides and the credit union industry as a whole. He has received numerous awards for his efforts in supporting these causes and advocates that giving of your time and resources is a responsibility we should all participate in. He was inducted into the CUES Hall of Fame class of 2021.

Muse leads and mentors his staff and others by using positivity and encouragement. He believes winning is contagious and fun which is evidenced by his overall approach to life and management style. He urges everyone to find that “one thing” they are passionate about to make their life, family, job or community better. He promotes this approach hoping it will lead to thousands of “one things” to make our communities and world better. Muse proudly states that his greatest accomplishment is marrying his wife and raising his two daughters.
