WARSAW — MutualBank has announced the promotion of Juli Eckel to client relationship manager in Elkhart and Kosciusko Counties.

Eckel served as a business development officer, financial center manager and, most recently, cash management services manager during her 11-year tenure.

In her role, Eckel is responsible for new business development and cultivating deeper relationships with existing customers. She partners with the financial centers and commercial bankers on joint calling efforts in Elkhart and Kosciusko Counties; she is also involved in small business lending. Attributed to Albert Schweitzer, Eckel’s drive for success is summed up with this quote: “Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.” Eckel’s fulfillment derives from helping others, live better lives.

Juli studied public affairs and administration at Indiana University-Purdue University, Fort Wayne, and owns The Gallery, a fine art and design studio in Warsaw, with her husband. She also enjoys reading and spending time with family and friends.
