Featuring our Member: Jessica Encarnacion

LES People's collaborated with NerdWallet's "The Power of CDCUs" series to feature our very own member Jessica Encarnacion and the Van Duzer Artisan Market.

Watch this interview about Jessica's relationship with Community Development Credit Unions (CDCUs), her journey as a business owner and her tips for new business owners.

“Having a credit union makes you feel like you have a little bit of a team, because now you have a financial counselor, you have a banker, you have all these different accounts, it helps you to get things kind of in order and if you don’t know certain things you can ask them for a referral” said Jessica Encarnacion, owner of Van Duzer Artisan Market.

Watch full interview here.
