Rinkenberger serves as the Chief Financial Officer for FCCU, the largest Credit Union in North Dakota.

“Rinkenberger is passionate about solving problems and believes his team can always find ways to do things better,” the magazine says. “He oversees accounting, balance sheet strategy, and facilities management for the nearly billion-dollar credit union.”
