She is committed to helping business owners achieve their goals by providing financial guidance and lending solutions. Her experience includes working capital financing, equipment purchases, commercial mortgages, construction projects and other business banking services.

Jessica began volunteering with ASSETS in May 2019 and served on its Loan Review Committee through August 2024, helping review and make decisions on Small Business and Impact loans.

Jessica is also actively involved in the community, serving on the Board of Directors for La Academia Partnership Charter School and participating in loan committees with Tenfold and Seedcopa + SeedcoDE.

She is also a 2022 graduate of Leadership Lancaster.

Outside of work and volunteering, Jessica enjoys crafting, singing and spending time with her husband, Brad, their daughter and friends.
