President of credit union to retire

OGDEN -- Shelley Clarke has announced her retirement after 10 years as president and CEO of Goldenwest Credit Union.

Clarke's retirement is effective at the end of the year. Kerry Wahlen will take her place at the state's third largest credit union.

"I am confident that Goldenwest will experience tremendous success under the capable leadership of Kerry Wahlen as he takes the reins of our not-for-profit financial cooperative," Clarke said in a statement.

During Clarke's tenure, Goldenwest assets grew from $190 million to $775 million. The credit union also added nine locations and more than doubled its membership from 41,000 to 83,000 members.

Wahlen has 33 years of experience in the financial industry. He has been with Goldenwest since 1986. He has a degree in business administration from Weber State University and an MBA from Utah State University.
