Hello! My name is Justin Michaelson, and I am the new e-Commerce and Social Media Coordinator for Metro. I've been with Metro for over a decade, starting as a teller at Saddle Creek in 2011. I've since worked in Cards, Fraud, and most recently in our Support Department. I'm excited to be in this new position where I can combine my personal interests in graphic design, photography, and writing with my history at Metro to provide insights, information, and updates, along with banking education, alerts, and hopefully some entertainment here and there. In my first blog post, I'd like to provide insight into our implementation of ITMs, and outline some of the additional services and benefits they offer our members.
