Downtown Spotlight 

We're back! We hope everyone had an amazing holiday! It's time to start off the new year right and spotlight another AWESOME downtown patron. 

This week the spotlight is on Tessa Keller with Investors Community Bank!

Pets:
Tessa’s home is run by a lovable 12-year-old Yorkipoo named Snickers and two cats, Drake and Rick. Rick, affectionately nicknamed “Thicky Ricky,” never misses a meal—and it shows!

Can’t-Live-Without Work Item:
While coffee keeps her running, Tessa’s true work-life MVP is her trusty meeting notebook. It’s the glue that holds her professional world together.

Favorite Work Memory:
Nothing beats the ongoing game of “jump scare” with her co-workers. The rules are simple: hide, wait, and scare the daylights out of each other. It’s all about keeping the workplace fun (and maybe a little heart-racing).

Collector’s Corner:
Tessa has a keen eye for unusual or international coins. Her collection is a testament to her appreciation for the unique and the worldly.

Favorite Sliced Bread Sandwich:
Tessa’s go-to is a ham and cheese loaf topped with mayo and cheese with white bread. Simple, satisfying, a childhood favorite, and totally her style.

Favorite Downtown Store:
Country Corner Craft & Antique Mall gets Tessa’s vote for the best downtown shopping spot. There’s always a treasure waiting to be discovered.

Tessa’s charm, humor, and dedication to her community make her a cherished part of Chillicothe. If you’re ever at Investor’s Community Bank, be sure to say hello—but maybe watch your back. She might be hiding around the corner for a scare!
