SILVIA DONDAY-SELENSKE

Born and raised in Caracas, Venezuela, Silvia enjoyed traveling the world during an adventurous career as a flight attendant after completing college. After a decade in the aviation industry, she met David, her beloved husband. After marrying in 1998, they had two wonderful daughters, Chloe and Lauren who filled their parents’ hearts with pride and joy. Silvia is forever grateful for her 25-year marriage partnership with David until his passing after a brief battle with cancer in 2023.  Their marriage was filled with love, laughter, and cherished memories.

In 2000 Silvia began working at a financial institution. Since then, she has built a rewarding career in the banking industry where she now serves as Vice President, Bilingual Lender in PremierBank’s Janesville office. Her commitment to her community and desire to make Rock County a better place to live and do business is unwavering. Through the years she has enjoyed board memberships with the YWCA and the Janesville Literacy Council. She currently volunteers each month at the GIFTS Men's Shelter providing banking assistance and financial education support to the residents there. She is also an active member of the Rock County Immigration Task Force helping area families create emergency plans to prepare for unexpected separations. Finally, Silvia currently serves as the Chair of Adelante Janesville, an important initiative of Forward Janesville dedicated to supporting Janesville’s growing Latino business community. She takes immense pride in being part of her vibrant community and contributing to its growth and well-being.
