2021 Ambassador of the Year - Matt Koehler, Greater Iowa Credit Union

Picture
Matt Koehler has been in the mortgage industry for more than 25 years and has served as a mortgage loan officer for Greater Iowa Credit Union for ten years.
 
Over the past year, Matt has not only attended many of our ribbon cuttings, he is always happy to help out and lead them from time to time. Matt consistently goes above and beyond to welcome new members and businesses to the Chamber and community and celebrate milestone anniversaries and renovations of existing businesses.
 
In Matt’s free time, he enjoys cheering on the Cyclones, Cubs, Bears and Blackhawks, and exploring the outdoors with his dog, Addison.
 
Thank you, Matt, for your ongoing commitment to our community and congratulations on being the 2021 Ames Chamber Ambassador of the Year!
