Hi Anastasia, fantastic find! Though this spider does have some similar features to the Zebra Jumper (Salticus scenicus), I am pretty sure that this is actually a species of Ground Spider. It looks most like Sergiolus tennesseensis. Bugguide only has two records (and photos) of this species in their archive but one was found in Oklahoma.
