Vice President And Sr. Relationship Manager
CurrentCiao! I'm Mark Felice, and as you can see, I'm not your average banker.For over 20 years, I've been in banking, developing my skills and expertise across multiple areas of the bank, from retail branches and commercial banking to treasury management and industry sectors in Healthcare, Government, Manufacturing, Automotive, and Food and Beverage.During this time, I also became a business owner, first by opening my own restaurant and serving as owner and chef, and second, by creating my own production company, producing a European travel and food show on YouTube and Amazon Prime Video in which I also served as series host.Cumulatively, my career in banking and in business has allowed me to "sit on both sides of the desk", to gain a unique perspective on the day-to-day challenges and objectives of running a business, from maximizing profitability, reducing expenses, and streamlining operations, to managing a staff and building strategic relationships with key business partners, like bankers, who play a critical role in not just helping a business manage its credit and working capital needs, but most importantly, in creating the visibility we need into our operations to navigate the hurdles and blind spots we don't always see.
