We’re just going to go ahead and say it… You aren’t going to find a better staff than you will at CLFCU! We have over 100 years of combined service to our members, we take the time to get to know our members, happily greet them when they walk through the door or come to the drive-up window, and make it a point to treat them like family. Now is your chance to get to know us a little better.
Misty Harrison
President & CEO
“I have worked at the credit union for 23 years. I love spending time with my family and going on getaways with my husband. Along with managing the credit union, I am also the owner of Beauty Bar Beautique in downtown Huntington where we offer airbrush tanning and hair design. It is my passion to make others feel good about themselves and I am so grateful to be able to do that through my business. At Community Link we are a family; our pool of employees is a family and our membership is a family.”
Melissa Ivey
Member Service VP
“I have worked at CLFCU for 16 years. My family is very active in Huntington County 4-H Robotics where I have served as a mentor and my kids have all been a part of the team. I enjoy reading, movies, and listening to Christian music. A fun fact about me is that I sing pretty well and was in my former church’s praise band. At CLFCU I’m the go-to person for solving puzzles and putting out fires within the credit union. I enjoy helping members and the girls I work with.”
Jill Simcoe
Senior Loan Officer
“I have worked at the credit union for over 20 years and can’t imagine doing anything else. It’s a joy to wake up each and every morning knowing I am going to a job I enjoy and where I consider my co-workers family. Don’t get me wrong, a vacation every once in a while is nice too, but I’m always ready to get back to my second home and family after some time away. I enjoy spending time with family and friends, watching my daughters in gymnastics, basketball, softball, choir, and anything else they decide to try, garage saling, or simply relaxing at home. In my position as a loan officer, I have been called a ‘miracle worker’ and ‘hero’ by some of the borrowers I have helped, but in reality I just have a lot of passion for helping others. I thrive on finding ways to help people save money or get funds for something the need or want – especially when they think it’s impossible. I love what I do!”
Lora Lough
Loan Officer
“I started working a CLFCU as a teller over 11 years ago and am now a loan officer. I love traveling – especially to the beach – I was made for sand and sun! I also love spending time with my family and friends and taking pictures. I am a huge FRIENDS fan! This place is so caring about our members – I’ve never seen that from another financial institution! I love seeing my members when they come in, and I love my co-workers – we are family!”
Carol Smart
Receptionist
“I have been the receptionist at CLFCU for 8 years. I love crafts, sunning, and traveling to tropical places… My family and I love summer and the beach! I am a floral designer by trade. I LOVE flowers and personally designing them. I always love to get together and have a party, and I love to entertain. I like all kinds of music, dancing is fun, and being with my family! I love my co-workers! We have a lot of fun together. I like to take care of them. I also enjoy greeting and conversing with all our members! We have some interesting conversations sometimes! I like to love on people and tease and make them smile… Life’s too short not to!”
Christa Lee
Head Teller
“I have been working at CLFCU for 7 years. A fun fact about me is that I was home-schooled! I love watching Grey’s Anatomy, hanging out with my hubby and kiddo, puzzles, and game night. I also LOVE unicorns! The girls here are like family. I love working with all of them. Also, our members are a joy to work with.”
Alyiah Foster
Teller
“I have lived in Huntington since I was 11 years old. I have a 10 year old daughter and am engaged to be married next fall. I enjoy spending time with family, my dog, and my two rabbits. I also love coffee, being outside, and going on family vacations!”
Rachel Baker
Teller
“I’m a teller at CLFCU and you can find me in the drive-up window working on Saturday mornings. I enjoy Notre Dame football, Indiana basketball, and Denver Broncos football. I love being my kids’ biggest fan at all of their sporting events. And even though I love 90 degree weather all the time, I LOVE CHRISTMAS! And SNOWMEN! And HOT COCOA! At the credit union, I love building relationships with our members, and of course, working with the best family of co-workers anyone could ask for.”
Lyvonne Nightenhelser
Accounting & Compliance Officer
“I started working for the credit union in August 2005. I love working here! We have such a fantastic staff… who are more like family than co-workers. I stay busy watching my grandkids play sports, dance, or just hanging out. I love music, especially rock. I’m also an avid Colts fan and an avid reader, but most importantly, I just love spending time with my family… especially my grandbabies. I am truly blessed to have the amazing family I do and the job I do… I love seeing all of you when you come into the credit union, so make sure you say hi!”
Erin Carter
Marketing Specialist
“I started working at the credit union in January 2018, but I actually worked here as a part-time teller about 13 years prior to that too. It’s been great to be back “home” and a part of this fantastic staff! I love being a “boymom,” capturing memories through pictures, all things Christmas, roller coasters. s’mores, and time spent with my family and friends. I’m passionate about Junior Achievement of Huntington County and the opportunity to teach awesome 2nd graders about their community each Fall. I’ve also been a Big Sister through Big Brothers Big Sisters to my Little Sister since 2018. Being back at Community Link has been such a blessing to me. We are truly a family here and I love how we extend that caring nature to our membership. It’s such a great place to be!”
