Gary Griffin

Business Development Officer, VP

As Vice President and Business Development Officer, my primary focus is expanding Fidelity Bank’s Small Business Administration lending program, with a concentration in business acquisitions and commercial real estate financing. I have over 45 years of financial experience in the SBA arena. Prior to joining Fidelity Bank, I worked for Dogwood State Bank as an SBA Business Lending Specialist. I also held SBA National Sales Manager and Business Development Officer positions at Patriot Bank, West Town Bank and Trust, and T Bank. In addition to my financial background, I am an active member of St. Michael Catholic Church.

I graduated from the University of Denver with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with a major in Finance. I also performed post-graduate degree work in Accounting from Georgia State University.

I currently reside in Tybee Island, Georgia, with my wife, Sue, and have two children, Alex and Shannon. When I am not working, you will most likely find me fly fishing, enjoying a round of golf, or visiting with my children in Dallas and London.
