About Jessica
Jessica Kalavoda is a Senior Loan Officer, but she has first-hand experience with all stages of the loan process — she’s been a mortgage originator, processor, underwriter, closer, and post closer. Before Embrace, she was AVP, Consumer Lending at Embassy Bank.
Born and raised in Bethlehem, PA, Jess attended Freedom High School and went on to study at Northampton Community College. She loves the area so much that she decided to stay and raise her family in Bethlehem; she is married and has two children, two dogs, and two cats.

She’s passionate, kind-hearted, and loves helping her borrowers find the right mortgage loan for their unique situation.
