She earned a BBA in marketing from Sam Houston State University and also graduated from the SW Graduate School of Banking at Southern Methodist University.
“Michelle has been an important asset to our team since she joined VeraBank in 2022,” says Joel Jackson, senior vice president/regional manager. “Having known and worked with her over the past year, I’ve developed tremendous respect and trust for her judgment, professionalism and ability to grow the bank’s commercial banking capabilities. Her friendly nature and focus on understanding customer needs and deadlines will serve the community well.”
“Michelle is an excellent fit for our Huntsville team,” says Brad Tidwell, president and CEO. “Her extensive financial industry experience combined with her local knowledge and deep commitment to client service will be invaluable as we continue to meet the business banking needs of our Huntsville community.”
