Day to Day

A great day in my job is centered around providing my team with leadershp, coaching and support to enable them to do what we do best, ensure our cutsomers financial needs are met. I will visit banking locations, observe the team, speak with customers and associates to uncover what we do well and where our opportunities are. Spending time coaching the team leader and ensuring the needs of both our associates as well as our customers are being met. If not find out what I can do to change that.

Advice for Getting Started

Here's the first step for college students

My career is centered around people development and leadership, therefore I would first ensure that is what interests you. After that, I would recommend taking classes around leadership as well as Public Speaking. My position involves a lot of speaking with others, meeting new people, and the art of conversation. Taking those classes in college really prepared me for that. I also took some psychology and sociology classes that helped prepare me for my role today.
