Union Bank Leadership Announces Promotions

Wagner Promoted to Vice-President

           Union Bank President Kevin Williams has announced that Ravan Wagner has been promoted to Vice-President in Lending. “Ravan has been a tremendous asset to Union Bank since joining us as a loan officer in 2018. She is committed to her customers and is always seeking professional development opportunities to grow in her role,” said Williams.

            Wagner is a native of Mena and a 2009 graduate of Acorn High School. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Agribusiness from Southern Arkansas University in Magnolia in 2012.  She is also a graduate of the ABA Commercial Banking School and will begin the rigorous Barret Graduate School of Banking in February.

            She and her husband of 13 years, Justin, are enjoying raising their two sons: Hunter, age 9, and Fischer, age 4 in Mena, spending lots of family time enjoying the local outdoor recreational opportunities.

            Wagner is also passionate about serving in the community and believes that is why Union Bank has been “such a good fit for me.” She is a council member for Christ Community Fellowship, President of the Mena Lioness Lions, and is the chair for the Polk County Backpack Program whose mission is to provide supplemental food for children who are food insecure.

            “The fact that I get to work at the hometown bank is a dream come true for me. The legacy and commitment that Union has poured into our community my entire life is also poured into me every day as an employee. I am very thankful for the team we have at Union Bank and am grateful for the opportunity to continue to work side by side with them serving our customers and community,” said Wagner.
