New Tripoli Bank announces the addition of John McDonald to its commercial lending team.

McDonald is a certified public accountant and has a Bachelor of Science in business administration from East Carolina University, a Master of Science in management from Babson College, and a Master of Science in taxation from Seton Hall University.

McDonald brings with him a wealth of experience both in the public sector, from his work with the IRS, as well as the private sector, with various industrial technology and manufacturing companies. His unique combination of professional experience makes him well suited for the bank’s commercial lending team, where he will be working closely with business customers by providing financial insight and support.

“It’s rare to find a candidate for a position with the experience and credentials that John brings to the team,” said Kate Zayaitz, chief lending officer for New Tripoli Bank. “We are excited to welcome him to our commercial lending team and look forward to him helping us expand our commercial portfolio in the coming years.”

McDonald is also a member of the community, having lived in Weisenberg Township for over 20 years. He is a veteran of the U.S. Marine Corps and has served overseas during his four years in the armed services.
