Interra Credit Union Welcomes Shaylyn Garza as AVP, Treasury Management Sales Officer
January 30, 2026 — Jason Dewart, Vice President, Manager Treasury Services is pleased to announce the appointment of Shaylyn Garza as AVP, Treasury Management Sales Officer, serving the St. Joseph and Marshall County markets. Garza brings diverse financial services experience and a strong passion for financial literacy, community engagement, and member-focused service. In her new role, she will work closely with local businesses to deliver secure, effective treasury solutions while strengthening Interra’s presence across the region.
Garza’s professional background includes roles at Centier Bank, Worldpay, and the Coca-Cola Bottling Company in Plymouth. Her experience ranges from community financial education to supporting commercial clients with payment and processing needs. While at Centier Bank, she taught financial literacy courses throughout the South Bend, Plymouth, and East Chicago areas, helping individuals understand the fundamentals of personal finance and empowering them to pursue financial freedom. Garza says these teaching opportunities remain among the most meaningful accomplishments of her career.
A graduate of Culver Community High School, Garza also completed three years of coursework at Ivy Tech Community College. She plans to continue advancing her professional development and has aspirations of pursuing recognition such as the 40 Under 40 Award in the future.
Her path into the financial industry was influenced early in life. She recalls a high school business math class where a local bank manager introduced students to topics such as writing checks, calculating loan interest, and understanding the basics of financial responsibility. “That class opened my eyes to the world of banking,” Garza said. “When it came time for a career change, I jumped in with both feet, and I have loved it more every day since.”
In her role at Interra, Garza is excited to contribute to the credit union’s ongoing growth while building relationships with businesses in her service area. Her goals include expanding her professional network and helping companies implement treasury solutions that support stability and long-term success. “I am thrilled to be part of the incredible growth happening at Interra,” she shared. “I look forward to making a meaningful impact in the community.”
Garza resides with her husband, Vito, and enjoys spending time with her three adult stepchildren. Outside of work, she is an avid concertgoer, camper, traveler, and self-proclaimed foodie. She hopes to explore opportunities to join community or professional organizations in the near future to further contribute to local engagement and outreach.
