NEW CASTLE, IN, November 7, 2024: The Indiana Bankers Association (IBA) has announced the nomination of Ashley Laurence, Banking Center Manager at the Citizens State Bank in Hartford City, for the highly esteemed “Woman of the Year” award. This distinguished recognition celebrates a woman in banking who excels at her profession, is active in the community, and supports other females to reach their full potential — whether in banking or other fields. An independent panel of judges, unaffiliated with the IBA, will select the award recipient.
In addition to this recognition from the IBA, Ms. Laurence has also been nominated by the Hartford City Chamber of Commerce for the inaugural “4 under 40: Community Leaders on the Rise” award. This accolade honors young professionals and small business advocates who are dedicated to making Hartford City a thriving, vibrant community through hard work and civic engagement.
Chief Banking Officer Brock Davis commented, “We are so proud that Ashley is being recognized for her deep-seated commitment to her community and to her team. She’s a prime example of a leader living the Citizens State Bank mission. Her servant’s heart shines in all she does. Ashley absolutely represents the finest in Indiana banking.”
Ashley Laurence’s nominations highlight her dedication not only to the banking industry but also to the broader community of Hartford City. Her leadership and service embody the values of excellence, community commitment, and mentorship that the “Woman of the Year” and “4 under 40” awards aim to celebrate.
