The entrepreneurial spirit burns bright in the clients Bo guides through the intricacies of the process to pharmacy ownership. With his 20 years of experience in retail and commercial banking, clients gain a seasoned advisor who is instrumental in helping them achieve their goals.
Bo joined First Financial Bank’s client-focused pharmacy loan team in 2012 to specialize in helping those who are looking to acquire or build a pharmacy.
However, the relationship only builds from there. Bo enjoys building relationships with clients during the process and stays in touch with clients after closing.
Outside of work, you can find Bo and his high energy family engaged in variety of activities, including travel and golf.
Before joining our lending team, Dr. Bobby Glaze was an independent pharmacy manager and community pharmacist. He understands the day-to-day aspects of running a pharmacy and business. Bobby enjoys learning the story behind his client's pursuit of pharmacy ownership and the store they are purchasing. His experience as a pharmacist will benefit his clients in becoming successful pharmacy owners. Outside of being a loan officer, he owns a small business and loves spending time with his wife and their three pets.
Dr. Schwanda Flowers has been an innovative member of the pharmacy community for the past 20 years.

She serves as a business plan team advisor and has been recognized nationally several times over the past decade. Schwanda, along with her husband, created the Pharmacy Ownership and Leadership Academy (POLA) to prepare student pharmacists for ownership.
