Seasoned First National Bank Alaska banking experts with more than 50 years of combined experience now oversee operations at the company’s two Juneau branches after a recent announcement by the Board of Directors.
Hired as a teller in 1986, Anita Bishop is the new Branch Manager at the Valley Centre Branch. Bishop has worked as a teller, customer service representative and operations supervisor in the state’s capital city since arriving at First National.
“The banking needs of our customers have changed from a technological standpoint in the last 30 years,” Bishop said. “But the one thing that will never change is our team’s commitment to meeting those needs with our best customer service.”
Lisa Loupe takes over as Branch Manager at the Juneau Regional Branch after moving over from Valley Centre, where she held the same position. She’s been with First National since 1992.
“Juneau is a community full of pride, I see it on the faces of our customers and employees each day,” Loupe said. “I’m fortunate to be part of the fabric of this town and help my friends and neighbors backed by First National’s storied tradition and impeccable reputation.”
Both Bishop and Loupe will be responsible for business development, consumer loans, branch operations and customer service at their respective branches.
