Meet Ann Stanford

Ann Stanford began her tenure with Renasant Bank more than 60 years ago. A journey that started with a visit with her school principal to a nearby Renasant location has led to becoming the bank’s longest-tenured employee.

Stanford is currently Vice President and manager of the Tupelo Main Branch. Aside from serving Renasant clients, Stanford is a fifth- and sixth-grade Sunday school teacher at her church. She also works with the church’s children’s programs during the school year and summer months. Additionally, Stanford is a member of the Boy Scouts of America’s “Order of the Arrow” and “Yocona Area Council.”

“Seize the moment,” Stanford said when offering advice to women. “Look for opportunities to help others, know where you came from and take a positive route in your working life going forward. Always be a team player.”
