"I've always enjoyed helping customers with their financial goals. It's a great feeling gaining a customer's trust to manage their money."

Vice President of Lending

In your own words, describe your role at the bank:
I am a commercial real estate lender and also lead a team of five other lenders at our Ralston branch.

How did you get into banking?
I started my banking career through an internship program as a senior in high school. I fell in love with banking right out of the gate and have been doing it now for over 20 years.

Why is banking a great career?
I've always enjoyed helping customers with their financial goals. It's a great feeling gaining a customer's trust to manage their money.

Is there anything you'd like to add about your family heritage or what Hispanic Heritage Month means to you?
Family values are an important part of the Hispanic heritage. I always try to make a personal connection with all my customers. This creates a strong friendship which helps maintain a good banking relationship for years.

"Banking is a great career because you have so many options. From teller, to bookeeping, to loan clerk or loan officer. There are so many paths one can take in the banking world."

Head Teller / Loan Clerk
Homestead Bank, Lexington
Silvia Prado Frias

In your own words, describe your role at the bank:
I open new accounts for checking, savings, IRA and business accounts. I help customers with account deposits/withdrawals, loan clerk duties, internet banking, credit applications and translating for Spanish-speaking customers.

How did you get into banking?
I always loved math in high school. My sister had heard about a job opening for a teller. Here I am, nine years later.

Why is banking a great career?
Banking is a great career because you have so many options. From teller, to bookkeeping, to loan clerk or loan officer. There are so many paths one can take in the banking world. It’s always evolving and there are new procedures/policies to learn all the time.

What is your favorite book, podcast or quote?
Roy T. Bennett – If you want to be happy, do not dwell in the past, do not worry about the future, focus on living fully in the present. I can’t change the past or control the future, but I live every day fully with my family and friends.
