Salticus palpipus? https://bugguide.net/node/view/1046338/bgimage Cool! I haven’t see this one posted before. It looks similar to the Zebra Jumping Spider, Salticus Scenicus, except for the light-colored cephalothorax and the iridescent purple accents. Thank you for trying to find the answer. I looked up the Latin name of the Zebra Jumper then put the genus name, Salticus into the Bugguide search bar >images> similar image> tapped for full Latin name. Hopefully this is the best answer.
