I believe this is a broad-faced sac spider/Trachelas tranquillus. Found this beauty on my kitchen counter behind some oven mitts.

Found one almost exactly the same on my shower curtain two nights ago. Broad-faced or bull-headed sac spider according to comments I’ve seen.
I hadn’t read about bullheaded spiders…so I did a little research and came across this video from Bob the Spider Huter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_YECsNH-e6c. I didn’t know that broad-faced and bullheaded are the same spider. I also learned from the video that the spider found was female.
