Chris Taylor is channeling his passion and our core values to make a difference in his community.

After the death last year of George Floyd, Chris Taylor was depressed but motivated to take action.

As a Black banker who grew up with strong financial role models, he knew he could make a difference teaching financial literacy to youth in diverse communities in Columbus, Ohio.

Working with a manager at U.S. Bank, he began crafting a proposal that would create a new full-time role allowing him to do just that. The next step was to run the initiative by our Consumer and Business Banking leader Tim Welsh, who had encouraged employees to reach out after Floyd’s death.
