Will Stark

Stark loves tackling a good challenge. For proof look at a few of his hobbies: back-country skiing, climbing and hunting. That bold characteristic gives him the drive to do his best to help customers’ financial dreams grow, no matter how big or small the job.

Originally from Homer, Stark earned a bachelor’s degree in business marketing from the University of Alaska Fairbanks, and later finished his master’s in business while at First National. Stark joined the management trainee program in 1993, became a loan officer at the Golden Valley Branch, and began using his knowledge to help business customers in a variety of industries find the right financial tools to grow their business.

In 1997, Stark made his way south to Valdez, where he has been the branch manager ever since.
