Michael J. Coulter New Chief Lending Officer Orange Bank & Trust Company

The Board of Directors and CEO Michael Gilfeather of Orange Bank & Trust Company announced recently that the bank has hired Michael J. Coulter as its new chief lending officer, succeeding Mary Ellen Rogulski, who is retiring.

Coulter comes to Orange Bank & Trust most recently from Metropolitan Bank in Manhattan, where he held the same functional position as executive vice president. Prior to Metropolitan, Coulter held progressively more senior positions at BBVA Compass Bank, Sun National Bank, Citizens, and Key Bank—all located in the greater New York City and Hudson Valley markets, the bank stated in a press announcement.

Rogulski began her career at Orange (County) Trust Co. in 2002. During her tenure, the bank’s commercial loan portfolio more than tripled in size. She intends to remain closely connected to the community through her participation in various civic organizations, including serving as vice chairperson of the Orange County Industrial Development Agency.
