Millennial Payment Company Sezzle Hires Target and TD Bank Alum As Chief Risk Officer

"Whether it be due to lack of access or products that don't cater to their needs, these consumers have been failed by the pay over time solutions of the past. At Sezzle, we are going to make sure consumers have a pay over time product that works for them while responsibly preparing them for success in their future financial product needs.

His experience with underwriting with the REDCard and with Bluestem Brands adds an invaluable amount thought leadership to our team," explains Charlie Youakim, CEO of Sezzle. "The entire Sezzle team welcomes Kirkpatrick and we eagerly anticipate the improvements he will bring to our decisioning processes."
