Mark Schwanhausser
Director, Digital Banking
Mark strategizes how financial institutions can track and serve customers across the channels they use, and provide a consistent, integrated brand and user experience. Mark helps banks and credit unions profitably enable customers to monitor and manage their money more intelligently through technology such as online banking, mobile banking, personal financial management, financial alerts, and technologies on the horizon.

He has also mapped out strategies to upgrade online banking, digital account opening, and financial alerts in a mobile-first era.
