Bob Young





Based in Greensboro, NC, Bob leads Magnolia’s Central North Carolina business development efforts.  Bob joined Magnolia in July 2011 after a 31-year banking career.  His extensive experience in banking includes positions in Commercial Lending, Special Assets and most recently as City President for a Regional banking institution. 

A native of Greensboro, Bob brings unique insight to the Magnolia team as he recognizes the challenges small businesses face with traditional bank financing.  

Bob is a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a degree in Business Administration.  He is the former North Carolina State Chairman of the American Institute of Banking.  He enjoys golf, guitar, running and spending time with his family.

"After a long career in the banking industry, it’s refreshing to be with a company that is looking for creative ways to finance small businesses rather than trying to fit them into a credit box."
