Texas First Bank Names McKinnon Chief Operating Officer

June 13, 2024

Taking on a new role within Texas First Bank, McKinnon is responsible for overseeing the organization’s strategic direction, project implementation and growth objectives, as well as supervising the retail, treasury management and operations teams.

McKinnon joins the bank with nearly 20 years of experience in financial institution advisory services.

“Having been our external audit partner for five years, he has gotten to know us and we’ve gotten to see him work,” says Christopher Doyle, president and CEO. “His experience in the industry and understanding of how we operate make him a great fit.”

A native of League City, McKinnon holds an MBA degree in banking and financial institutions from Sam Houston State University.
