Adrianne Tracy

Boulder Valley 40 Under Forty

Helping people reach their goals doesn’t require a magic wand. A good banker generally can do the trick. Someone like Adrianne Tracy.

“Whether I am helping an established business owner attain his dream of building a Velodrome or helping a small-business owner expand her deli on Pearl Street, my commitment to local business has helped Centennial Bank Boulder become a successful de novo bank in a heavily saturated market,” said Tracy, the bank’s senior vice president.

“In just four years,” she added, “the Boulder bank has grown to over $80 million in assets.”

A 15-year veteran of the finance industry in the Boulder Valley, Tracy manages a diverse loan portfolio of commercial and real-estate customers.

“I believe that my commitment to helping my co-workers, my customers and my organization has helped grow my portfolio to one of the largest in the bank — and over a relatively quick timeframe,” she said. “It has also allowed me to advance quickly in my career, having been promoted to senior vice president at the age of 32.”

Tracy makes her presence felt outside the bank as well.

She has worked with Boulder Ballet for 10 years and found funding in 2010 for a tuition-assistance program for the dance school.

She has supported Boulder Community Health Ambassadors for three years, leveraging her business network to bring in financial and in-kind donors.

In January, she began working with Junior Achievement, and was to teach 90 kindergarten students at Blue Mountain Elementary School in Longmont about financial literacy.
