Milestones
My road in life took a while to figure out.
My mother and father got divorced my freshman year of college and both moved out of state.
Knowing that it was sink or swim from that point shaped my professional career.
Taking a job at a deli right out of college was the only job I could find.
Showing up early, working hard, and staying late helped mold me into who I am today.

Arrive to the bank at least 30 minutes before we open to ensure everything is up and running before our customers come to do their banking needs. We have a morning meeting as well with the staff to go over best practices, success stories, or any new or updated policy changes or product enhancements. Once the bank is open we are willing and eager to help our customers with their banking needs and to give financial advice to help our customers reach their goals.
