BANK MARKETING & COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT Kali Bannon, Programs & Design Specialist Farmers Bank & Trust

I n community banking, the marketing is only as good as the relationships behind it, and that is exactly where Kali Bannon shines. As Programs & Design Specialist for Farmers Bank & Trust, Kali is the creative force behind much of what customers see, from digital campaigns and social content to the branded programs and promotions across the bank’s growing footprint in Arkansas, Texas, and Oklahoma. But her work goes well beyond good design. Kali has a knack for turning a bank’s presence into a genuine community presence, and she practices what she promotes. She serves on the PG Education Foundation, Texarkana Gameday Advisory Board, Wacha Family & Friends Foundation, and Women of Hope & Courage. People do not bank with a logo. They bank with people they trust, and Kali makes sure that trust comes through in every message. That approach earned Kali and the Farmers marketing team the bank’s HEART in a Team Award for 2025. At home, she has been married to Chris for 16 years, and together they are raising four kids: Hudson, 13; Hayes, 11; Harrison, 9; and Blaire, 7.
