Women’s History Month | Heather Slyman
AFSA is celebrating Women’s History Month by featuring outstanding female leaders in the consumer credit industry.
My career started as a Programmer/Analyst at Boeing and later led to 21 Years in lending, 11 years of that in auto finance, and 16 years in software. My diverse background has led me to Odessa combining all of those experiences in one place. My most important lesson has been to value relationships with the people you meet along the way. The world is a small place, and you never know when you will cross paths again. I have been lucky enough to not only have one mentor who was instrumental in my career, but rather a collection of people who motivated me to keep striving forward.
If I could tell my younger self one thing, it would be that if you work hard and build trust by doing the right things, everything will fall into place.
