Brooke Kilgore
Vice President, Retail Market Manager III“Life is never dull,” says Brooke Kilgore. A proud native of Walker County, Brooke joined Synovus in 2021. Brooke has found that almost every financial success story her clients share with her traces back to their initial discussion. “Hearing about the significant improvement in their credit score or their joy upon purchasing their first home brings me immense satisfaction,” says the graduate of the bank’s Ignite Leadership Development program and two-time Chairman’s Award winner. Along with mentoring her team members and pursuing her degree from the Alabama Banking School, Brooke and her “incredible partner” Larry are active in their church and community. You can find the couple at almost any ball field or court around, cheering on their four children, “mature and responsible Lexi, creative Aubrie, adventurous John Luke and energetic whirlwind Andie Claire.”
