Braden Hoekstra

Account Manager

As an account manager, Braden will be focusing on servicing his clients’ current bond needs, while helping them plan and implement strategies to work towards their long-term bonding goals.

Braden is a proud Minnesota native who grew up in Clara City, MN. He earned his Business Management degree from Minnesota State University, Mankato, and after graduating, made the move back home to Clara City. Prior to joining Goldleaf, Braden worked as an Ag/Commercial Loan Officer, bringing valuable experience and a strong understanding of his clients’ needs to his new role.
 
Outside of work, Braden enjoys staying busy and active. He enjoys golfing and even serves on the board for the Raymond Golf Course – Hawk Creek Country Club. In the winter, you’ll find him ice fishing or snowboarding, and in the summer, he loves spending time on the lake, especially pontoon rides and wake surfing. And you cannot forget his golden retriever, Lenny, who is usually along for the ride. Braden also gives back to his community by coaching football for MACCRAY Public Schools and serving as a volunteer firefighter in Clara City. These are essential roles in Braden’s life as they keep him rooted in the community and connected to the people who make it special.
