Oak Valley Community Bank announced the promotion of Lisa Melville to Vice President, Commercial Loan Officer. Melville is based out of the bank’s Downtown Sonora Branch.
Melville has been in banking for over 40 years, nearly 20 of which have been in commercial banking. When Oak Valley acquired Mother Lode Bank in 2015, Melville was a great fit with the commercial team. She has played an integral role in representing both Sonora branches and serving clients throughout Tuolumne County, as well as the Eastern Sierra. In addition, Melville has been instrumental in our efforts to assist businesses in the Mother Lode region with PPP loan and forgiveness applications.
Melville will continue to focus on commercial lending and business development. “I can’t say enough about Lisa’s work ethic and professionalism. She is a key employee whom we greatly rely on in the Sierra region and is highly deserving of this promotion,” stated Gary Stephens, EVP Commercial Banking Group.
