Our Story

---

Built on Experience. Driven by Purpose.

After leading over 300 core conversions and strategic tech initiatives for credit unions and nonprofit financial institutions, our founder Patrick McHugh saw a clear pattern: great projects elevate organizations—poorly managed ones leave lasting damage. Spayside Consulting was born to change that.

We Bridge the Gap.
We specialize in aligning vendors and financial institutions through meticulous planning, steady leadership, and member-centric execution. Our mission is simple: help you hit your strategic goals on time and on budget—without the chaos.

What Sets Us Apart:

• ✅ Deep credit union and financial institution expertise with a track record of success
• ✅ Strategic, hands-on leadership from kickoff to go-live
• ✅ A commitment to trust, transparency, and measurable outcomes
• ✅ A heart for community and industry impact

Beyond Projects—We Build Partnerships.
We’re not just consultants. We’re collaborators, sponsors, and community advocates. From supporting youth programs and underserved families to investing in credit union leagues and DILA, we believe success is shared.

Why “Spayside”?
Named after a place of personal significance, Spayside represents new beginnings, strong bonds, and a space for collective growth. It’s more than a name—it’s our promise to build something lasting, together.
