Although he’s worked for four different banking systems throughout his thirty-five year career, Pinnacle Bank is where Todd believes he can make the biggest difference for his customers and his community.

Not only is Torrington his current home, it’s also where he grew up. So it’s especially meaningful for him to give back. Like when he gets the chance to help a second or third generation farmer find a way to stay in the family business. Or working with local charities, like the St. Joseph’s Children’s home where Todd serves on the board of directors.

Todd’s proud to be a graduate of the University of Washington’s Pacific Coast Banking School and the University of Wyoming, where he received his BS in International Agriculture. When he’s not at the bank, you’ll likely find him at the gym, working off his family’s latest culinary creation. 

What she originally thought would be a job without working weekends has turned into a 24/7 career of passion for Minnie. From her time as a teller to working her way up to President, she’s spent the last thirty-plus years doing the right thing for our customers and our community.

Seen as more than just a banker, Minnie appreciates that her customers are comfortable chatting with her about the changes they are considering in their lives and businesses. That kind of relationship, often lasting for generations, is how she’s able to be so responsive.

Minnie came to Thermopolis in 1980 with her husband to experience all the scenery, camping and hunting our area offers. She’s also a serious fixer-upper, always looking for new ways to bring life to old furnishings, rooms and houses.

To say small town living is familiar to Gil is probably an understatement. In fact, outside of his college years in Ft. Collins and Boulder, Worland is one of the biggest towns he’s lived in. 

He started with us back in 1995 and has worked in our branches throughout rural Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, and of course, Wyoming. But no matter the branch, he’s always appreciated being a part of the community and giving customers what they need to make important life decisions.

Gil and his wife, Sarah, live here with their three children. When he’s not at the bank or keeping up with his busy family, he enjoys running, shooting sports and camping.
