Springs Valley Bank & Trust Company promotes Denni Hilgefort to mortgage loan officer

Springs Valley Bank & Trust Company recently promoted Denni Hilgefort to mortgage loan officer.

Denni joined Springs Valley as a loan processor in March 2025 and transitioned to a mortgage lending assistant role in January 2026. In these roles, she gained hands-on experience with the lending process and worked closely with customers and the mortgage team to make each step as smooth as possible.

“I am excited to step into my new role as a mortgage loan officer and grateful for the opportunity to continue growing in my career,” said Denni. “I look forward to building meaningful relationships with customers and helping guide them through the mortgage process. Being able to grow professionally while giving back to the community I grew up in is something I truly value, and it makes this next chapter especially rewarding.”

A 2023 graduate of Jasper High School and lifelong resident of Dubois County, Denni is proud to serve the community she has always called home. Denni is a member of the Optimist Club and has accepted membership on the Jasper Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors. Passionate about giving back, Denni looks forward to finding new ways to become involved in the community.

Outside of work, Denni enjoys spending time with her fiancé, Gavin, and their chocolate labrador, Grizzly. She also loves making memories with friends and family, spending time outdoors, and seeking out new adventures whenever she can.

“We’re pleased to have Denni take on this role and begin helping customers with their mortgage needs,” said Brian Smith, VP & Business Banker. “Her commitment to building strong relationships and providing personalized service will serve our customers well as she helps individuals and families navigate the home financing process and work toward their homeownership goals.”
