Misty started her career in banking in 2000 in Lewistown, IL. At that time, she managed loans and had customer service responsibilities. She then made her way to Macomb, IL, where she established a new Schuyler State Bank branch.  Recalling the experience, she says, “Starting from scratch, understanding the dynamics of the region, and building a customer base was a rigorous process."

After a couple of years, Schuyler transitioned into Marine Bank and that brought another test: Winning the trust of new customers was vital.  In the role, Misty learned the importance of community presence and stepping out of her comfort zone.

Misty brings her perspective into her role as branch manager for INB. She considers herself a cheerleader and team player, always leading by example to ensure INB customers remain the top priority and focus.

Misty is married and lives in Leland Grove.  She and her husband adopted a standard poodle, Oakley, who adores Misty.  She finds solace in the "little oasis" in her backyard.

In 2017, Misty chose to be a non-directed kidney donor. She simply approached Memorial Health, said she wanted to donate . . . and then did.  She has since met one person who benefited from her donation, but doesn’t know the other three people who benefited from her one, donated kidney.
