Core Values and Accomplishments
Kevin credits his parents for teaching him how to pitch in and help others. This is why the bank’s core value, Never Not My Job, resonates with him most. “My parents were always teaching us that if we can help, we should even if it feels awkward, unpopular or uncomfortable. In the end, what matters most are both the result and the impact you make on the individuals you are helping.”
Kevin says he is most proud of the work done to bolster the finance department at Sunrise Banks. “We added both a Financial Planning and Analytics team and an Enterprise Project Management Team,” he says. “By doing this, we can now better support the bank’s growth plans.”
