Banking Experience

I have over 32 years of lending and other banking experience. I began my career in eastern North Carolina in June 1988 after graduating from Clemson University. After an intensive bank training program with a regional banking company, I relocated back to the Upstate, and I still call this home. During my career, I have served customers in numerous roles in branch management, consumer lending, commercial lending, and credit administration all over the Upstate in Greenville, Pickens, and Oconee Counties.
