He joined the team at Peoples Bank as Vice President and Commercial Banking Officer at the Lynden Financial Center. Born and raised in Lynden, he is a third generation Lynden native and continues his grandfather’s legacy as a veteran community banker. Jeffrey earned his Bachelor’s Degree at Northwestern College and served thirteen years active duty in the U.S. Army Reserve. Involved in his community, he has been a member of Rotary Club of Mt.
