Get to know me
As a First Citizens commercial banker, it’s important to invest in understanding your business, strategies and key objectives. An established process and skilled team of specialists help me tailor solutions to fit you and your organization. Clients appreciate our trusted partnership in planning for long-term success.
I earned my Bachelors degree from University of Florida, majoring in Finance. I also earned an MBA at University of Michigan. My career includes over 26 years in banking with the majority of that time spent in the Commercial Banking space. My specific focus has been working with clients in the Commercial and Healthcare space that are in the growth phase of the business cycle.
My spouse, Marion and I have been married for 25 years. We have a son who is a freshman at University of Florida, and a daughter who is a junior at Plant High School.
I am active in the Greater Tampa Bay Chamber of Commerce. I serve on the Urban Core Advisory Board for the Tampa Metropolitan YMCA. I am the former board chairman of the SPCA Tampa Bay, and serve on its Capital Campaign committee. I root for the Gators, Wolverines, Buccaneers, Rays, Lightning, Jesuit Tigers and Plant Panthers!
I invite you to connect with me on LinkedIn.
