It’s always exciting to add new members to our team. Here are some of the fresh faces at North Shore Bank.

Bayshore universal banker Maria Ferretti is originally from Brazil and has lived in Milwaukee since 1994. She previously worked at PNC Bank as a universal banker. She loves taking long walks and is the mother of three boys, and says she misses a lot about her home country — “my family, the food, and of course the weather!” But, she adds, “In Wisconsin I really enjoy the cheese and the summer. I could never deal with the winter.”

Kenosha Main teller Rose Haney is a lifelong resident of Wisconsin and is coming from almost three decades in education. “I just needed a change,” she says. “When I announced to my students that I was planning to take a different career path, I asked for their suggestions, since I hadn’t decided what I wanted to pursue. The consensus was that I should be a comedian! I was thrilled with that and declared that I’d look into it. The students were excited and asked if they could attend a show if I did one. I told them they may want to reconsider, since THEY would be the topic of any material that I shared!”

Debit card and ATM processing manager Beth Johnson is from Franklin and previously worked as director of operations for Universal Processing Services of Wisconsin (which does business as Newtek). Beth and her family are big Brewers fans. “We are looking forward to another fantastic season for the Crew,” she says. “When the warm summer days pass, we will be excited for October postseason baseball at Miller Park — I’d love to see them make it to the World Series.”

Kenosha South assistant branch manager–sales Shane Klimek was born and raised in Racine and previously worked at Shopko as a general merchandise manager. He likes going to sporting events with his 9-year-old daughter, Caitlin. “We go to as many Bucks and Brewers games as we can,” he says. “It’s a great bonding experience, and she has a real knack for getting memorabilia or prizes at games. In the past year, she caught a foul ball at a Brewers game and two T-shirts at one Bucks game — which has left my inner child pretty envious of her!”
