I am a lifelong resident of Illinois. I graduated from Morrison High School in, after which, I resided in Southern Illinois for 16 years. I currently live in Morrison with my three sons and fiancé. I graduated from Sauk Valley Community College in 2019 with an Associate’s Degree in Business Management, in addition to my degree I received a certificate in Small Business Management and Entrepreneurship. Subsequently, I started my banking career, and in the beginning of 2022, I joined the commercial team at Sterling Federal Bank as a Cash Management Assistant

It did not take long to realize that business deposits were a passion of mine. I pursued a more impactful position and am now the Senior Cash Management Specialist. I assist businesses with their deposit accounts along with all the other financial aspects that help their business run smoothly. Along with 4 years of banking experience, I have 21 years of customer service experience. I love getting to know the businesses in our community and helping them with all their banking needs. It is my goal to help make your businesses a success, because your success is our success. I look forward to getting to work with you and your business.
