First off, I want to say thank you for visiting our website. My name is Marie Cooper, and I am the Branch Manager of the Anniston Branch. I have more than 20 years of service here at AlaTrust and I have come to know and love my members and aim to treat each one as family. In 2014 I obtained a mortgage lending license and over the last eight years I have quickly realized that one of the things I love most is assisting my members with their Real Estate needs. Whether it is a home purchase, refinance, or a HELOC for home improvement or debt consolidation I love being able to assist my members in reaching their financial goals.

Hello, my name is Sherlyn McWhorter, and I am the Branch Manager of the Talladega Branch. A few things about me quickly: I am married, I have three (almost) grown children, and one cat. I love to travel, read, and cook in my spare time. One of the things I love most in my personal life and professional life is connecting with people and helping people. I believe that has been a foundational principle that I have carried throughout my life. I started out as a Teller in 1987 and I have spent most of my professional life in the financial industry. I left the industry for a few years, but I realized that I really missed helping members make their financial dreams come true. This realization “led me back home”. I believe one of the greatest financial goals that most people have is the goal of becoming a homeowner and that is one of my favorite things to help my members achieve. If you are interested in seeing how AlaTrust can help you, give me a call today to discuss the different options that we have and let’s find one that is tailor fit to help you achieve your goals!
