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

Howard-Suamico universal banker Faith Gunderson is from Oconto Falls and previously worked as a teller at N.E.W. Credit Union, where she started at age 15. She is majoring in accounting at Northeast Wisconsin Technical College. “I have a few hobbies,” she says. “During summer, I cruise around on my motorcycle and go fishing once in a while, and in the fall I go mudding on the trails, either with my UTV or ATV. During winter, I ride my snowmobile around and go to the ice drags.”

Indirect lending regional account manager Jason Nugent is from Fridley, Minnesota, and previously worked as a market rep in Minnesota for American Credit Acceptance. He started playing hockey when he was 4, and is still on “a real ‘old man’ team today.” He says, “Truth be told, I only sub now, as it takes way too long for me to recover, but nevertheless, it is fun. My real enjoyment now comes from watching my two daughters play — I have an 11-year-old goalie and 8-year-old high-flying forward who keep me busy in the stands.” Here he is with his older girl at a player/parent game this week. “She had a frown because I scored a hat trick on her.” (The pink helmet, minus padding, used to be his younger daughter’s.)

Grafton teller Colleen Wochinski is originally from Iowa; she lives in Cedarburg now and will celebrate 20 years in the Milwaukee area this summer. She has some prior banking experience, but has mostly worked at retail shops including bookstores and toy stores. “When I can, I love to travel,” she says. “Some of my favorite destinations have been Ireland, Glacier National Park in Montana, and the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando.”
