Bio
Terrance M. Phillips, MBA
It is my pleasure to recommend Stephany. Stephany is one of the BCB's most progressive Branch Managers. She is a true professional whose tireless commitment to both the Bank as well the communities in which she serves is evident in her daily duties. As the risk officer for BCB, a 1.2 Billion dollar bank serving various communities throughout NJ and Staten Island NY, I communicate with many in the Bank's Branch Network. Stephany is committed to not only meeting all of the Bank's financial goals, she is dedicated to building relationships within those communities in which she serves, which most often translates to increased shareholder value.
Wayne Smith - Mayor Emeritus
Stephany is a thorough and thoughtful banker with a pleasant and engaging personality. She is truly a community banker putting service above self.
