FORT WALTON BEACH, Fla. – Eglin Federal Credit Union (EFCU) has recognized a senior vice president for 35 years of outstanding service.

During a recent celebration in her honor, Dawn Oravetz, EFCU’s Senior Vice President and Chief Payments Officer, was awarded an EFCU Achievement Award for her dedicated service to the credit union.

“Dawn has been an integral part of our team over the past 35 years, and we value her contributions to our growth,” said Jerry Williams, EFCU President/CEO.

“We are grateful for the loyalty, expertise and commitment she has shown, and the years of service she has dedicated to our organization.”

According to EFCU, Oravetz started to work with the credit union in May 1988 as a computer aide in data processing. She was promoted five times within the data processing department over the next 12 years before accepting the position of data operations manager in May 2000.
