Hanna's write-up
Michelle Repta
Michelle began her community banking career in 2004 as a customer service representative. During her time with the bank, she gained experience in lending and now focuses on consumer lending and mortgage loan evaluations. Her experience as a customer service representative paired with her knowledge of lending gives Michelle a well-rounded understanding of the community banking industry.
Michelle’s favorite season is camping season! When she’s not helping customers, you can likely find Michelle at the campground with family and friends in the summer. If she could choose any other career, it would be a meteorologist as she enjoys watching thunderstorms and weather events throughout the year.
