Mark Huffstetler
Chief Credit Officer, Truist Bank
Mark Huffstetler is the Chief Credit Officer at Truist Bank, where he oversees credit governance for the seventh-largest bank in the United States. Mark built his career in investment banking, most recently, serving as Head of Capital Markets Origination for Truist Securities. Here, his teams led the execution of equity and debt capital-raising activities for Truist clients.
A proud alumnus of The University of Texas at Austin, Mark earned degrees in Economics and Psychology from the College of Liberal Arts. He has been a longtime Advisory Council member for the McCombs Master of Science in Finance (MSF) program, recently serving as Chair. His path into a career in finance without a traditional business degree is why he’s passionate about supporting the MS programs. The business courses he took at UT helped him land his first job in banking, and he recognizes that his diverse academic background was a major differentiator early in his career. He believes that’s what makes McCombs MS graduates so special.
His deep involvement in the MSF program reflects his passion for changing the world in his own way—by mentoring young professionals and sharing his experiences to help others learn from his journey.
Mark and his wife, Rachel, live in Atlanta, Georgia, and are proud parents of three Longhorn daughters—two McCombs graduates and a junior in the College of Natural Sciences.
He encourages today’s graduates to embrace adaptability, strategic thinking, and lifelong learning and they go forward to change the world in their own way.
