DeFoor promoted at First Metro

Kyle DeFoor, branch manager of First Metro Bank’s Tuscumbia location, was promoted to Vice President.

Kyle began his employment with First Metro Bank over fourteen years ago after graduating from Russellville High School.

He received a Bachelor of Science degree in Economics from the University of North Alabama followed by the completion of a Masters in Business Administration in 2006.

Kyle then furthered his education by attending Birmingham School of Law in the fall of 2009. Through his ambitious spirit, Kyle graduated in May 2013 from Birmingham School of Law with a Juris Doctor (J.D.) and passed the bar exam in September of the same year.

He is currently enrolled in the Graduate School of Banking at Colorado and will graduate in July 2015.

Kyle is a dedicated patron of the Shoals area through the many partnerships he has developed with various community organizations.

“We are proud to recognize Kyle and his numerous accomplishments,” said Rodney Howard, First Metro Bank President and CEO.

“Kyle is always ready to serve our customers and provide them with a memorable banking experience.”
