Nate Dungca

Home Loan Consultant, SAFE Credit Union

I graduated from Sacramento State in 2018 with a degree in Economics and began my career at SAFE CU the same year as a Customer Service Representative. Just three months later, I was promoted to Loan Fulfillment Specialist, where I honed my skills in attention to detail, effective communication, and time management. I understand that the loan process can be daunting for members, and I take great pride in using my expertise to ensure they feel satisfied and confident in their banking experience with SAFE.

I am excited to assist members in navigating what is often their most significant financial decision. While I approach my work with dedication, I also maintain a sense of humor that helps me connect with members and build strong relationships.

Outside of work, I am devoted to my family. During the summer, we enjoy swimming, grilling, and visiting local parks. In the fall and winter, you'll find us cheering on the 49ers and cozying up by the fire. Come springtime, we dedicate our time to gardening and maintaining our front and back yards. I look forward to contributing positively to my team and fostering enduring relationships with both colleagues and members.
