Get to know me

As a First Citizens business 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 UNC Asheville with a concentration in Management. My career includes over 25 years in banking with the majority of that time spent in the Business/Commercial Banking space. My specific focus has been working with clients that are in the growth phase of the business cycle.

My spouse, Kim, and I have been married for 27 years. We are the proud parents of one son, Tyler .

I am passionate about spending my spare time with my family doing various hobbies like golf, fishing and cooking BBQ. I have served on many committees throughout my banking career and currently serve on several boards. I'm also a Past President of the Dunn Chamber of Commerce and the Coats Area Chamber of Commerce. I am a member of Westfield Baptist Church where I currently serve as deacon and choir director.
