Kirby Hall Graduates From Pacific Coast Banking School

September 24, 2022 – Bank CFO and Vice President Kirby Hall graduated from the Pacific Coast Banking School as part of the Class of 2022. The graduation ceremony was held in Seattle at the University of Washington on September 2, 2022, with over 200 graduates from financial institutions across the country.

Founded in 1938, Pacific Coast Banking School (PCBS) offers a graduate-level executive leadership and financial management education over a three-year period in partnership with the Foster School of Business at the University of Washington. Hall began the program in 2019, with a delay in 2020 and only online courses in 2021. This year, she was able to return to the University of Washington’s campus for in-person classes. She is the third employee of State Nebraska Bank & Trust to graduate from PCBS, along with Vice President Jason Claussen and CEO Matt Ley.

Hall joined SNB as a Controller in 2014 and worked as a teller during her college years. She graduated from Wayne State College with a BS in Public Accounting and Finance and an MBA. In the community, Hall is busy teaching Sunday School, volunteering for Boomerfest and Kiwanis, serving on the Wayne Basketball Development Association board, Dirt Devil Softball Association Pasta Feed Committee, and WAED Organizing Committee. She is also treasurer for the WAED Board and for Wayne Elementary Booster, and a graduate of the Leadership Wayne IX class.

Outside of work, Hall lives in Wayne where she and her husband Brandon raise their three children. When they are not attending activities for their children, they try to catch Husker football whenever they can, play cards and board games, and spend time outdoors with the kids.
