In his new role, Cody will help build out the construction lending offerings of First Foundation Bank. Cody will be responsible for identifying and growing construction loan relationships with both new and existing clients.

“We are very pleased to have Tim join our team,” Robert Noble, chief lending officer of First Foundation Bank, said. “As First Foundation continues to expand across new regions, we see the importance in diversifying our offering to provide clients with a full relationship banking experience. Tim’s expertise in construction lending will complement our offering perfectly.”

Cody has more than 30 years of banking experience, with 20 of those years focused in construction and commercial real estate lending. Prior to joining First Foundation, he was the senior vice president and director of construction and CRE lending at Pacific Premier Bank, where he developed the construction loan program.
