Customers call the bank for a variety of reasons. Often they are excited about the potential opportunity to improve their existing business or expand into a new arena. The opportunity to help make those dreams a reality fuels my inner fire to exceed their expectations. I strive to create structures where the customer can benefit in the short run as well as in the long run. By putting the customer at the center of the process, I distinguish myself from the competition.

Client Focus

My focus is on developing long-term relationships, built on mutual trust, with owners of small to medium sized businesses.

Experience

B.A. from Grove City College. Graduate of the Banking School of the South at LSU.
