Hamilton Bank Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer Ellen Fish has been appointed to a five-year term on the University System of Maryland’s Board of Regents by Governor Larry Hogan.

The Board of Regents is responsible for the governance of the University System of Maryland, which seeks to improve the quality of life for the people of Maryland by providing a comprehensive range of high quality, accessible and affordable educational opportunities; engaging in research and scholarship that expand the boundaries of current knowledge; and providing knowledge-based programs and services that are responsive to the needs of the citizens of the state and the nation.

Fish brings 29 years of finance and banking experience to the Board of Regents and experience in higher education, having previously served on the advisory board for the College of Business and Economics at Towson University and most recently on the Towson University Foundation, Inc. board. She also has served as a director of Virginia Tech’s Advisory Board for Student Affairs and is an advisory board member of the Women’s Leadership Education Initiative at Virginia Tech. “Ellen’s background in banking and finance and her experiences in higher education make her a wonderful addition to the Board of Regents,” says Board of Regents Chair James T. Brady. “I have no doubt her talents will enrich our efforts to guide the University System of Maryland.”

“I am honored to be selected to the Board of Regents and look forward to continuing to work on accessibility and affordability for Marylanders as well as economic development opportunities for the University System of Maryland,” says Fish.
