F. Robinson McGraw, chairman and chief executive officer of the Tupelo, Mississippi-based bank made the announcement of Moody's appointment following a recent meeting of the Board of Directors of Renasant Bank.
Moody will work from the Birmingham office of Renasant, which operates more than 170 banking, mortgage, financial services and insurance offices throughout Mississippi, Tennessee, Alabama, Florida and Georgia.
With 19 years of financial services experience, Moody will oversee Renasant strategic investments in digital, online and mobile banking, digital marketing, user experience to ensure the corporation is always current, competitive, and providing a unified customer experience across delivery channels for customers, according to a prepared statement from the bank.
Moody was born in Roanoke Rapids on April 23, 1970, the son of David and Ethelene Moody. He has one sister: Kimberly Moody.
His early education was shaped at Manning Elementary, Chaloner Middle School, and Roanoke Rapids High School and he later attended East Carolina University, graduating with a BSBA and MBA.
Moody and his wife, Felicia, have two children Evan and Blake.
Moody attributes much of his success to the hard working values he learned from his mom and dad who were always present and a host of other friends and family in the Roanoke Valley community.
“Growing up in the Roanoke Valley taught me a lot about hard work, dreaming big, and perseverance. I am proud to be from this great city and appreciate how well the education system prepared me for the real world,” said Moody.
