New Hires for February 8
It’s always exciting to add new members to our team. Here are some of the fresh faces at North Shore Bank.

Grafton assistant branch manager–operations Donna Billmann is from Port Washington and worked at Bank Mutual before coming to North Shore Bank. “I love being outdoors as much as possible,” Donna says. “I love to ice-skate in the winter, and I bike, swim, and hike in the summer with my family to stay active.”

Wauwatosa teller Jessie Krajcir was born in Milwaukee and lives in Brookfield. She previously worked at Stein’s Garden & Home and is in her first year at UW-Waukesha; she plans to go for her PhD in psychology. “I love the outdoors,” Jessie says. “I like four-wheeling, snowmobiling, shooting, and hunting.”

Pulaski teller Debra Price is from Abrams, north of Green Bay, and previously worked for an adult family home, as well as at places like Denny’s and Menards. “I enjoyed the customer interaction at Denny’s, along with meeting many Green Bay Packers, country music stars, and wrestlers over the five years I was there,” she says. Debra started as a millwork manager at the Howard Menards when it opened and worked her way up to department manager, and then an assistant building materials manager. “Our guests at Menards sure made your day!” she says. “And I have now had the opportunity to see some of them again here at the bank.”

Kenosha Main teller Rodney Whiteside is from Waukegan and was previously a teller at Consumers Credit Union. He plays paintball down in Dundee, Illinois, and is also a self-described “HUGE” Star Wars fan. “I have been since my mom took me out of school to go see it in theaters,” he says. “I have seen every movie multiple times and can talk about it all day. I have several different Star Wars ties, socks, and coffee mugs, and I try to bring in different ones throughout the week.”

Milwaukee Capitol teller Hmooshirle Yang is from Milwaukee and was previously the call teams admission supervisor at Cardinal Stritch University. She is learning to play the ocarina — a kind of flute made famous by the Nintendo game The Legend of Zelda: The Ocarina of Time. “Growing up, I was a big video gamer, and that was one of my favorite games,” she says. “I became fascinated with the instrument and its melodies. But it wasn’t until a decade later that I discovered it was a real-life instrument!” She adds that her name is pronounced mong-sure-lee yay-ang, and that she prefers to go by Moshi. •••

Coleman has new baby

Last month, staff auditor Ashley Coleman had a baby. Margaret Coleman was born weighing 7 pounds, 5 ounces, and 20 inches long. Congratulations, Ashley! •••

North Shore Shape Up: Don’t forget Teladoc!
A reminder from Human Resources: Through our UMR health plan, North Shore Bank employees can access Teladoc — quality 24/7 medical care by phone, video, or mobile app. Connect with a board-certified physician in just a few minutes, over the phone or via video chat on your smartphone or laptop. Teladoc is a great way to get quick, inexpensive care without making a trip to your doctor’s office.

Green Bay East teller Keri Tulys had this to say about her recent Teladoc experience:

This was my first time using Teladoc, and I must say I was very pleased with the outcome. The system is easy to use — registering and the health assessment took maybe 20 minutes, which was the longest part of the process. Once I finished the health assessment, I was able to request a consultation, and within minutes a doctor had called. He asked a couple questions regarding my illness and then diagnosed me and had a prescription sent to my pharmacy of choice, available for pickup in a just few hours. Teladoc is user-friendly, fast, and very convenient. I will be using it again in the future.

Teledoc can prescribe treatment for a wide range of cases and conditions. More information here!
