    Richmond, Va
    I took on the opportunity to lead the growth of the Richmond Market for a newly-arrived Richmond-based community bank. The Bank is the result of the very-recent merger of Bank of Lancaster with Virginia Community Bank and moving the headquarters to Richmond in the 2nd quarter of 2017 at which time the Virginia Commonwealth Bank name was adopted for the whole enterprise.

    Park Sterling Bank Jan 2016 - Jul 2016
    Richmond, Virginia Area
    Park Sterling Bank's acquisition of First Capital Bank resulted in myself being named the Regional Market President in Richmond, VA. Primary duties included managing the Commercial Banking Group and dotted line authority with other business lines serving the region. The primary goal for Park Sterling executive management in Charlotte was to take advantage of the additional market and the significant performance gains provided through the First Capital acquisition and to sell the Bank quickly to a larger regional bank. I stayed with the company through the systems conversion and through settling our remaining leagacy First Capital teammates into their new positions. Park Sterling sold to South State Bank of Columbia, SC several months later.

    I joined First Capital Bank to help re-build the Bank in the midst of the economic downturn which created significant loan portfolio, capital, and earnings issues. My position was to take on leadership of the Commercial Banking platform and renovate the team, the loan processes, credit approval, the commercial deposit and treasury products, and bring added accountability. I lead the strategic planning processes for the Bank through three phases: crisis management, preparing for a capital raise, and growth into a high performing community bank. I also coordinated First Capital's re-branding efforts during this later phase. The First Capital Bank board voted to sell the Bank to Charlotte-based Park Sterling Bank in 2015.
  • First Market Bank

We built First Market Bank to be a very competitive and successful community bank, growing organically to $1 billion in assets in seven years. The organization's success was built upon an entreprenuerial foundation, a strong brand, experienced and energetic teammates, solid products, a great culture, and strong investment in the community. As a founding member of our senior management team I had the fortunate opportunity to not only build the commercial division but also to have significant involvement and impact on our strategic objectives over 11+ years. First Market Bank was sold to Union Bankshares in 2010.
