New Faces in Marshalltown

Home Federal is excited to announce its new team of local bankers to provide local service and local decisions to the Marshalltown community. Since late February, the bank has welcomed three new employees to the bank, promoted two existing employees, and bid farewell as a long-time, valued employee entered retirement. While change can be a challenge to some, this new team of banking experts in Marshalltown is ready to show the area what a difference community banking can make.

New faces to the bank – but not new to the Marshalltown community – include the hiring of Amy Feisel as Branch Manager in late February, as well as Melissa Taft and Rachel Olhsen hired as tellers in April.

Familiar faces taking on new roles include Hannah Hedum, who returned to the bank in December of 2021 as Consumer Banking Specialist and Lead Teller after a brief break from the team, and was promoted to Assistant Branch Manager in May of this year. Jenifer Chavarria, who’s been with the bank since early 2021, was promoted from Universal Banker to Consumer Banking Specialist in May as well, and has been a valuable resource for the Spanish speaking population in the Marshalltown area.

Lastly, also in May, Banking Specialist Linda Bell retired after 12 years with the bank. Home Federal and its clients are grateful for her years of incredible service and wish her the best in her new, well-deserved retirement chapter.

The bank also saw banking veteran Tom Klapperich take on the role as Market President in early 2022. With more than 20 years of experience with Home Federal, and currently the Market President of two other locations for the bank, Tom brings a wealth of knowledge and leadership experience to the area, and is excited about the new team of local bankers.

“As a community bank, having a team of bankers that are local to the area is important to us,” says Klapperich. “It’s clear that this newly formed team of both familiar and new faces is dedicated to serving the Marshalltown community and genuinely wants the best – not only for our clients, but the members of the community as well. We invite you to come meet the team and experience our dedication to service first-hand.”

Home Federal is proud to have a strong team of female banking experts dedicated to providing exceptional service to the greater Marshalltown area.
