Pinnacle Bank opens loan production office in Sundance

Pinnacle Bank has announced it will be opening a loan production office in Sundance. Set to open in early February, it will be located at the former home of Farm Bureau at 406 Cleveland Street.

“Sundance is a neighboring market for us,” said Faron Ferguson, Pinnacle Bank Regional President in a press release about the new office.

“We currently serve a number of consumer and commercial customers in northeast Wyoming, and expanding our loan presence to Sundance, with a loan production office, is a great way for us to help the people and businesses of this exceptional community finance their growth needs.” 

Kristen Keeline, a Newcastle area native, will be the Branch Manager of the new LPO. Keeline has a degree in accounting, with a minor in finance, from the University of Wyoming. 

She has worked for Pinnacle Bank for over six years, with the past three years dedicated to the Risk Management department, reviewing and assessing commercial and ag loans from across the state.   

“Kristen’s Wyoming roots, vast experience and her passion for delivering remarkable customer service is a precise fit for the Sundance community,” said Ferguson. 

Pinnacle Bank says its new loan production office will offer a complete line of consumer and commercial loan products to the Sundance market and surrounding areas. The emphasis will be on agricultural, commercial and mortgage lending programs. 

“Being family-owned means our core values are in alignment with the community’s; we share the same ethics and beliefs on how things should be done,” said Keeline. 

“I look forward to becoming an engaged community partner in Sundance not only through our strong lending solutions, but also as an involved business and with our volunteer efforts.”
