Hired: Jennifer Feindt, Loan Officer

Horizon Farm Credit recently announced the hiring of Jennifer Feindt as a loan officer, based out of the association’s Dover, Delaware office. She will report to Martin Desmond, Farm Credit’s regional lending manager.

“Jennifer is not only very experienced in the agriculture industry, but she is also a native of this area, making her a wonderful addition to our team,” says Desmond. “We look forward to her getting to know our customers and helping them reach their business goals.”

“Our sales team staff is not only well-versed in financial management, but they have real-world agricultural experience, setting them apart from many other lenders today,” says Stuart Cooper, Horizon Farm Credit’s DelMarVa Division Vice President. “Jennifer will make our department that much stronger, and we’re excited to bring her on board.”

Feindt graduated from University of Delaware’s College of Agriculture with a bachelor’s degree in environmental soil science and a minor plant biology. She also holds a master’s of business administration from Wilmington University.

“Agriculture has played an integral role in Delaware’s history and continues to be a vital part of our local economy,” says Feindt. “I am looking forward to working with our local ag producers to meet their financial goals, both now and in the future, so that we can continue this tradition.”

Prior to joining Farm Credit, Feindt worked for the United States Department of Agriculture, Farm Service Agency, and as a branch manager for a community bank. As a loan officer with Farm Credit, she will help current and potential customers determine which financial solutions will suit their business best and help them plan for the future.
