Matt Price was promoted to president & CEO of the bank, effective January 1. He succeeds Mike Baker, who retired on Dec. 31, 2025, after more than a decade of leadership.
Under Baker’s leadership, State Bank grew from approximately $350 million in assets to $870 million, expanded into new markets, and invested in technology and services.
Price joined the bank in April 2025 with the title of president as part of the bank’s executive succession plan. Before joining the bank, he practiced law for more than 30 years, most recently at IBA associate member Dentons, with a focus on business, real estate and local government matters. He also previously served on the bank’s board of directors.
