About Derek Longua

Personal banker and financial representative with Summit Credit Union at the Black Business Hub, a community-centered space focused on helping individuals and small businesses navigate financial opportunities and build long-term stability and equity. Partnering with local nonprofits, entrepreneurs, and emerging creatives in the Madison area has provided wide insight into a variety of industries while consistently maintaining financial empowerment as a foundation for meaningful growth.With a B.A. in Business Marketing and focused studies in Art History from Lake Forest College, I bring a perspective that blends strategy, collaboration, and aesthetic sensibility. I am drawn to opportunities where relationship-building, thoughtful communication, and creative problem-solving intersect. Whether guiding clients through financial decisions or engaging with local artists and organizations, I aim to offer support that feels informed, approachable, and genuinely invested.
