| Chris Herriman is the new Southwest
Area Business Advisor for the Vermont Small Business Development
Center in Rutland and Bennington counties. She holds a Bachelor's
degree in Organizational Leadership, and has lived in Vermont
for 7 years.
Prior to coming to the VtSBDC, Chris worked as a Vice President
for Chittenden Bank in Rutland where she managed a $120 million
dollar portfolio of loans and deposits while working extensively
in the community to learn about business in Vermont.
Before moving to Vermont, Chris lived in California where
she worked in banking for 12 years, most recently as director
of local marketing at California Federal Bank in San Francisco.
Chris's small business experience stems from owning, operating
and successfully selling three small businesses. That experience
combined with her years in banking has offered Chris a great
opportunity to learn about business from both sides of the
desk.
