The Business Cred
As a child, Philip wanted to be a garbageman. Instead, the summer between his junior and senior year at Rhodes college, he knew he wanted to be a banker. The rest is history:
  • More than 9 Years, EVP & Chief Credit Officer at BankTennessee
  • More than 10 Years, National Bank of Commerce, FVP Metropolitan Banking and Asset Based Lending
  • Prior Credit Conference Committee, Tennessee Banker's Association
  • Risk Management Association - Middle TN, Prior Chapter Board Member & Chief Credit Officer Roundtable

The Personal Stuff:

If you want to get on Philip's good side, bring him a bag of Lays Chips with bacon and horseradish dip. He'll wash it down with a Bearded Iris Homestyle IPA. In his free time, Philip is most likely listening to music while cooking at home, or driving fast. He has four pets: an airedale terrier named Bella, two great dane's named Beaucoup and Blue, and a black cat named Ziggy. He can't live without bacon, beer, and the Rolling Stones. Ask Philip about being a certified beer snob!
