Bio

Stephanie Verardi, a mortgage banker for Springfield’s many communities, began her banking career 38 years ago, joining Heartland Bank in 2023 from Town and Country Bank. Her primary focus has been the financing of real estate properties, whether it is the purchase of a home or refinancing to live a better life. Stephanie works closely with customers to build long-term relationships by understanding their business and proposing solutions tailored to their individual needs. She believes longevity in any job is hard to attain unless you feel you are helping people, and that is what she loves about her job.

Stephanie earned a bachelor’s degree from Eastern Illinois University where she majored in finance and minored in economics. Stephanie is the treasurer for both the Catholic Daughters of America and for the St. Mary Church Fall Festival. She is also active with St. Mary’s Church and Hope House of Central Illinois.
