Throughout her tenure, she has provided solid legal counsel and problem-solving strategies that have positioned us for the future,” said Bazemore. “On behalf of the board of directors and the Bank’s leadership team, I’d like to thank Suzanne for her outstanding guidance and trusted partnership throughout her tenure.” Titus-Johnson’s effective retirement date will be December 17, 2021.

As chief legal officer, Ms. McCulloch will be responsible for providing legal counsel to the Bank’s management and board of directors, including advising on regulatory matters affecting the development and execution of the Bank’s business strategies, policies, and practices.
