(Guthrie Center) The Guthrie County State Bank announces the addition of Tawnia Ganzer to the agriculture lending team.
According to the press release, Ganzer brings more than 20 years of lending experience to an employee-owned, independent bank with deep roots in the agricultural and business industries in Guthrie County and the surrounding region.
Tawnia Ganzer joined the team in June and will have an office in the Guthrie Center location of GCSB while spending a large percentage of her time meeting farmers and customers in the field and on the farm.
“Adding Tawnia to our lending team bolsters our already deep bench of experienced lenders, especially in the ag category,” said Mike Underwood, president, and chief executive officer of Guthrie County State Bank. “She has a unique knowledge of this region as well as existing relationships with most of the farm owners and families in the area. Tawnia is a great addition to GCSB, and we’re looking forward to our customers making connections with her.”
Bank Officials stated Ganzer previously served as a Farm Loan Officer for Farm Service Agency. She started in the Harlan office in 2000, then moved to the Guthrie Center office in 2016. During her tenure with the FSA, she sustained one of the largest direct loan portfolios in the state with almost zero delinquencies while using her knowledge and years of experience to train other lenders.
