Inside Consumer United :: Federico Creatini

Federico Creatini began at Consumer United last December, working full time as a Consumer United Advocate. He loves to save Consumer United members money on basic services, especially when it comes to insurance-related products.

Since Creatini's arrival, Consumer United has expanded its reach throughout the Northeast including New York, New Jersey and Connecticut and hired more people.

"Since I joined less than a year ago I watched the company double its size. Being part of that growth is what I enjoy the most out of my job," he says, adding that he enjoys the "fast-paced, energetic environment" at Consumer United. "What is there not to love about this job?"

What's Creatini's favorite personal finance advice? "Start saving and investing early," he says. "I cook my own meals, walk or bike to work."

Creatini grew up in Buenos Aires, Argentina and enjoys staying active outside of the office. "During my free time I play soccer, do Jiu-jitsu, ride my bike, and whatever type of activity you can challenge me on," he remarks.
