Theresa Adams, Accounting Officer
If you could take an unlimited, all-expenses-paid vacation, where would you go and why?
Europe, but more specifically Italy, because the food, ancient sites, museums and history are all things that appeal to me.
Where’s the best place you’ve ever visited/favorite vacation spot, and why?
I like to go anywhere where there’s an abundance of sunshine and I can drag my family and fur babies along with me. Texas and Florida are usually the best spots for that: Texas for country music and BBQ, and Florida for fun and the plethora of activities you can do.
Deena Smith, VP, Mortgage Originator
If you could take an unlimited, all-expenses-paid vacation, where would you go and why?
I would take all 10 of my family members by letting them choose their favorite place, and just go for a week to each place and take that off their bucket list of places to see!
What’s your favorite way to spend a long weekend?
My favorite way to spend a long weekend is to be with my family and friends poolside – just relax and have no plans, which seldom happens, but when it does it’s the best!!!!
Jason Routzahn, Mortgage Funder
If you could take an unlimited, all-expenses-paid vacation, where would you go and why?
If I could take an all-expenses-paid vacation, it would probably be to go to Ireland or New Zealand. I love seeing different places around the world and those places look beautiful in pictures, so it would be great to see them in person.
What was your very first job?
My first job was part-time at Sears in the men’s apparel department. I liked learning about the business, and at the time, the mall was a hustling, bustling place. It was fun to have a job there.
Joe Glessner, Treasury Services Associate
What’s a song that always puts you in a good mood?
Wheel in the Sky by Journey
What job did you want to have when you were a kid?
A paleontologist, because who doesn’t like dinosaurs?
Katie Ramlow, Teller
What’s your favorite way to spend a long weekend?
I like to spend my long weekends outside with my kids playing.
What’s your favorite holiday or time of year?
October, because it’s my birthday month and it’s always been my favorite time of the year with Halloween. I love the spooky pumpkins and haunted houses.
Wendy German, Senior Loan Processor
What’s a favorite memory from your childhood?
One of my greatest childhood memories was spending part of my summers with my paternal grandmother. She taught me so much about life. Another great memory is when I would walk home from school every day, and I walked past my maternal grandparents’ home. They would always be sitting outside waiting for me to come by on my way home.
