First State Bank of Uvalde Welcomes Anderson in the Mortgage Department, Caldwell for Commercial/Ag Lending

March 14, 2024

Chad D. Stary, president and CEO of First State Bank of Uvalde, recently announced two new hires—one in the mortgage division and the other in commercial/agriculture lending.

Jeff AndersonJeffery Anderson has joined First State Bank of Uvalde as vice president and mortgage department manager. He has 24 years of credit and mortgage experience, with a background that includes loan production, managing teams of lenders, training, service quality, process improvement and compliance. A native of South Dakota, Anderson holds a degree in finance from Northern State University in Aberdeen, South Dakota.

“Texas has always been the dream destination for our family, so when the opportunity to work at First State Bank of Uvalde presented itself, it was one we couldn’t pass up,” Anderson says. “Uvalde checks every box for our family—extremely kind and welcoming people, it’s beautiful, the bank is breathtaking—all in a tight-knit community that we are thrilled to be a part of!”

Chris CaldwellThomas “Chris” Caldwell has been named vice president and commercial/ag lender at First State Bank of Uvalde. He hails from Leakey and has strong ties to the Uvalde area. Caldwell began his banking career in Lamesa as a farm loan officer trainee learning to service and originate cow/calf and row-crop operating lines for farmers and ranchers. He continued his banking career as vice president/commercial ag loan officer across the state, with tenures in Sinton and Sulphur Springs before joining First Statte Bank in Uvalde. Caldwell received his bachelor’s degree in agricultural economics/agricultural business from Texas A&M University.

With more than 24 years of banking experience, Caldwell is eager to return to his roots and apply that experience. “Over the years working in the ag banking industry, I have gained a great understanding of how exceptional lending institutions function and thrive,” Caldwell notes. “I know I will be a new face to many in this community, and I’m looking forward to meeting all of the farmers, ranchers, business owners and industry service providers, as well as individual owner/operators, to see how the FSBU team can best serve the community to achieve goals and aspirations.”

Established in 1907, First State Bank of Uvalde operates eight branches in South and Central Texas.
