Peloton instructor Jess Sims is partnering with U.S. Bank as a part of her relationship with the WNBA. She shared the news via Instagram last week:
I definitelyyyy didn’t get to where I am now all by myself, so looking for opportunities to give back is SO important to me – and I’m especially passionate about empowering women in all areas of life.
Only 55% of women say they are confident in managing their money, and I knowwww we can do better than that! I’m proud to be joining @usbank to help women gain confidence in making financial decisions!
As a #WNBAChangemaker, @usbank has partnered with the @wnba to help women win in their financial game. Together with U.S. Bank, we’ll champion women on and off the court 🖤
And hiiii my girl @napheesa24
Jess is a sideline reporter for the New York Liberty, a role that she began last year.
U.S. Bank also published a press release with more information about the partnership, which ties into their overall support of women’s athletics:
Collier and Sims will help U.S. Bank with its financial wellness programs and partnerships as part of its WNBA Changemaker sponsorship focused on empowering women leaders through financial wellness programs. Specifically, they will serve as ambassadors to conduct outreach and awareness around financial wellness to U.S. Bank employees, other WNBA players and the community.
The release includes a quote from Jess explaining what the collaboration means to her:
“I’m so honored to be joining the U.S. Bank family – a brand that is committed to empowering women as leaders, athletes and human beings,” said Sims. “Financial wellness is inextricably linked to everyone’s overall health and well-being so I am excited for two of my worlds to come together to help educate others to build financial confidence.”
Jess will participate in U.S. Bank events and content opportunities throughout the upcoming WNBA season, which runs from May through September.
Jess was also recently announced as a Good Morning America contributor, and last fall she served on College GameDay’s broadcasting crew for the 2022-2023 season.
