Endeavor Bank (EDVR) is a locally owned and operated commercial business bank based in San Diego that caters to the needs of businesses and business owners based throughout Southern California and beyond. With a Leadership Team comprised of seasoned executives and entrepreneurs, EDVR employs a consultative banking approach oriented around helping clients enhance and grow their companies by identifying new opportunities in the market and new methods for streamlining operations internally, by brainstorming ways to eliminate bottlenecks and operational inefficiencies, and by connecting clients with other likeminded individuals and business owners across our network to create a thriving community. In this role, I managed the credit analysis and underwriting for a $30M loan portfolio while working closely with the executives on our team to strengthen existing relationships and forge new ones. EDVR offers digital banking and loan services to small-to-medium sized businesses operating in all major GICS market sectors: Health Care, Materials, Energy, Industrials, Utilities, Financials, Information Technology, Communication Services, Consumer Discretionary, Consumer Staples, and Real Estate, and my loan portfolio consisted of credit facilities financed to support a mix of clients positioned across these industries.
