How Have You Grown Personally Or Professionally While Working At Banterra?

I have grown more accustomed to my coworkers and the work they are doing. In all my previous roles, I have only had one job – Teller. Here, I have had the opportunity to gain experience and grow with other departments, including the Marketing team through the Brand Ambassador program. I have learned so much thanks to the help of several banking professionals I work beside including Sr. Portfolio Manager Greg Argyle, Market Executive Preston Keller, Regional Market Executive Jeremy Lowry, Sr. Construction & Mortgage Coordinators Tracy Hendriksen and Kristin Brown and the Director of Residential Lending Tanya Perea. Even on the day-to-day, Banking Center Manager Sophia Fradelakis has let me watch over her shoulder to learn what she does and how she does it. Overall, it is such a blessing to learn new roles and see exactly what I want to continue doing.
