ROANOKE, Va. (PRWEB) October 15, 2019 -- Thompson was born and raised in Warsaw, Virginia located on the state’s Northern Neck. Thompson graduated from Rappahannock High School in 2010. Shortly after, she went on to attend Rappahannock Community College, working toward a degree in Business Management. She is currently attending Penn Foster to further her education in Finance.
Thompson started her career in banking at Atlantic Union Bank as a Teller during her studies at Rappahannock Community College. She served several branch and operational roles with that association. She also worked in the Loan Operations department at Essex Bank, as well as with EVB Bank.
Thompson grew up lending a hand on her Uncle’s farm in Richmond County, and looks forward to her new role and the opportunity to work closely with producers and rural community members in the FCV footprint.
