Jennifer Gardner,

VP, Trust Officer

A Springfield native, Jennifer Gardner has always enjoyed the Central Illinois community.

She attended Illinois State University and graduated with degrees in Finance and Marketing. She and her husband Frank met while studying at ISU, and after marrying upon graduation, the couple moved to Chicago. In Chicago, she worked at Northern Trust Bank in Corporate Trust Administration.

A move took them back to Jennifer’s hometown of Springfield in 1995, and she accepted a job at First of America (now PNC) as a Personal Trust Officer. When her first child was born in 1998, Jennifer decided to take on a new role as a stay-at-home mom. She and her husband are now blessed with five wonderful children.

In February 2014, Jennifer joined INB and now serves as VP, Trust Officer for INB Wealth.

“INB is the first community bank I worked for; I enjoy the friendly work environment and really like the that decisions are made locally,” she says.

In addition to her career, Jennifer remains active in leadership and community organizations. She has completed the Leadership Springfield program and volunteers for local nonprofits. She is a member of the Illinois Women in Leadership, the King’s Daughters Organization Progress Circle, and the local chapter of Daughters of the American Revolution.
