Ryan takes leading role in NBC’s commercial banking

A local banker has joined the commercial banking team at National Bank of Commerce.

Jenn Ryan is the new senior vice president commercial banker in NBC’s Duluth bank, where she focuses on business development and client portfolio management.

She has 15 years of banking experience, the past seven in commercial banking in US Bank’s downtown Duluth office. Prior to that, she worked at Wells Fargo and US Bank in the Twin Cities area.

A native of Flint, Mich., Ryan received her Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Michigan-Flint and her Master’s in Business Administration from Metropolitan State University in Minneapolis.

Ryan is active in the community, serving as board chair of the Duluth Local Initiative Support Corporation (LISC); on the boards of the Duluth Workforce Council and Duluth Legacy Endowment Fund; and as a volunteer for the Boys & Girls Club and Junior Achievement. She’s a former board member of the Duluth Area Chamber of Commerce, and a graduate of its Leadership Duluth program.

“National Bank of Commerce is committed to providing our customers with excellent resources and expertise, and Jenn Ryan is another great example of that,” said Bruce Webb, president of National Bank of Commerce’s Minnesota Banks. “Many in the community already know her through her banking and civic activities, and I invite anyone who doesn’t yet know her to stop in and say hello.”

National Bank of Commerce is the area’s largest, locally owned bank, with Minnesota bank locations in Duluth and Hermantown and Wisconsin banks in two locations in Superior, as well as offices in Poplar and Solon Springs.
