Where did you grow up and get your education?<br />

I grew up in <strong>Faulkner</strong> County attending Greenbrier<br />

Schools K-12. After high school I studied at Central<br />

Baptist College where I received my business administration<br />

degree.<br />

What brought you to <strong>Faulkner</strong> County?<br />

To me <strong>Faulkner</strong> County has always been home. I<br />

get to work in an environment where I know almost<br />

everyone who walks in the door. The hometown connection<br />

is what will always keep me here in <strong>Faulkner</strong><br />

County.<br />

Do you have hobbies you want to share?<br />

I enjoy spending time on the lake during the summer<br />

and in the duck woods during the winter.<br />

Are you involved in any professional<br />

organizations?<br />

I am a member of the Conway Core BNI chapter here<br />

in <strong>Faulkner</strong> County<br />

Tell us about your family.<br />

I am very excited to be getting married this year. I will<br />

be getting married on September 29th to my beautiful<br />

finance Kurstee Smith. My entire family lives here in<br />

<strong>Faulkner</strong> County and has for as long as I can remember.<br />

What does the future hold for you in<br />

<strong>Faulkner</strong> County?<br />

I plan to continue growing at the bank and helping<br />

my customers.<br />

Advice for someone just starting out?<br />

I would have to pass along the advice that was given<br />

to me when I first started. Take every moment and<br />

every situation as a learning experience. Some of those<br />

situations will teach you what to do and some will<br />

teach you what not to do, but never stop learning.<br />
