Patty Tuttle

Maryland Regional President
Wells Fargo Bank

Patty Tuttle, who has been with Wells Fargo for more than 25 years, was named Maryland Regional President in September, replacing Andrew Bertamini, who retired after 43 years with Wells Fargo.

Tuttle held leadership roles with Wells Fargo in Georgia, South Carolina, Virginia, the District of Columbia and Maryland before accepting her current role. When she moved from Virginia to Maryland last year, she acknowledged she was facing a transition period. She was a senior vice president and retail credit manager before the move.

“I still have a lot of learning to do,” she says. “What’s not different is there’s always opportunity when we’re talking about workforce development, we’re talking about education. … How do we help those kids that are in school today understand how to manage finances, understand how to set themselves up for success, whether it’s going to college or going straight into the workforce? I was going to teach high school English and education has always been a big one for me.”

Tuttle says nurturing her professional connections has been a key to her success. “I focus on healthy and productive relationships with customers and team members, and help them achieve success,” she says.

She’s excited to be working with the Wells Fargo workforce in Maryland. “We have a talented team and terrific opportunities,” she says.

Tuttle says she sees great business opportunities for Wells Fargo in Maryland. “We are looking at making investments to help our branches and managers put things in customer language and make things easier for them.”
