Meet Lehigh Valley Business’ 2023 Power List for Banking and Finance

Welcome to Lehigh Valley Business’ Power List for Banking, Finance, Accounting and Wealth Management.  

With interest rates and the economy in flux, as well as news of banks failing, there has been increased attention lately on the finance community. 

Today we recognize those who shape our communities and influence our quality of life through the banking and financial institutions our society depends upon, as well as those professionals in accounting and wealth management.  

With this list, we are introducing our readers to those leaders. To do that, we asked them to introduce themselves and share something personal.  

I hope you enjoy getting to know them.
