Kelly joins team at Independence Bank

Tanner grew up in Stanford, Montana. After graduating from Stanford High School, he attended college at the University of Montana Western on a rodeo scholarship, earning himself a BA in Business Administration with a Small Business option in the spring of 2012.

Tanner moved to Malta in the fall of 2013, where he began his career as a loan officer. Tanner and his wife Randi have 3 children: daughters Charli (14) and TJ (4) and son Ellis (11). Tanner is active in the community as he is currently a 3rd year Director of Malta Chamber of Commerce and a 6-year member of Malta Athletic Club. He enjoys attending any extra curricular events that involves his children as he has become a loyal Malta Mustang/Mette fan!

"We are very excited to see Tanner join the Independence Bank team and look forward to his continued growth," said Casey Cote, Branch President. "His 8 years of banking experience and his knowledge of the issues facing our customers along the Hi-Line make him a perfect fit."

I look forward to continuing to provide the financial needs to Ag producers and business owners throughout the area! My family and I are very excited to become part of the IB Family!!
