Jess Steelman

commercial lender

I was inspired to go in to banking due to the amazing grace, helpfulness, and outstanding customer service of a banker during an extremely difficult time in my life many years ago. I knew that I wanted to be that for my clients, and have the impact, and make a difference like they did for me. Those moments inspired my banking career, which is now over 15 years and continuing on at JD Bank. Over the years I have worked in almost every position within a few different national and community banks, including managing multiple branch sites. I am exceptionally excited to get back to what I truly love; making and being the difference for my business clients as a commercial lender.

I am a southeast Louisiana native and have lived on the Northshore most of my life. I have 2 incredible grown children: a 22 year old son and a 15 year old daughter, along with an amazing partner and 2 more bonus adult children.  I have a great passion to service and making a difference in my community, therefore I stay very active serving on numerous boards, committees, and volunteering my time.   I proudly serve with East St. Tammany Habitat for Humanity on both the Rosie Committee, as a Rosie Team leader & member as an original Rosie, and Dos Amigos Dental and Medical Mission Trip, just to name a few! I love spending time with my family, helping others, rescuing wild life in need, traveling and finding all sorts of adventures to get into!
