GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — August 9, 2026 — First National Bank of Michigan (FNBM) is pleased to announce the addition of Troy Butler as Vice President & Chief Business Development Officer. In this role, Butler will focus on developing new business relationships, strengthening existing partnerships and helping advance the bank’s growth strategy across its markets.

Butler brings more than 20 years of banking experience to FNBM, with a background spanning commercial banking, commercial real estate lending and private wealth management. Throughout his career, he has developed strong relationships with business owners, executives and individuals, providing financial solutions designed to support both business growth and personal financial success.

His experience extends beyond banking. Butler took an eight-year hiatus from the financial services industry to pursue entrepreneurship, where he successfully built, grew and ultimately sold two small businesses.

“Having the opportunity to step away from banking and become a business owner gave Troy a perspective that is particularly valuable to the clients we serve,” said Mike Hollander, FNBM Grand Rapids Market President. “He understands firsthand the challenges, opportunities and decisions that business owners face because he has lived them himself. That experience, combined with his extensive banking background, makes him a tremendous resource for our customers and a great addition to our team.”
