Member Profile

Andy Clifton, senior vice president at Farmers and Merchants Bank in Sylvania, began his banking journey early—as a part-time teller just before his 16th birthday. Reflecting on his career growth, he recalls mentorship from Charles Lee, a market president with more than 30 years of experience, who taught him that the “essence of banking lies in the ability to connect with each customer on their level.” Clifton credits his passion for banking to the meaningful impact he makes in his community, noting that being a banker allows him to “build trust and support the dreams and goals” of his clients, whether it's building a home, expanding a business, or navigating life’s challenges.
