She Is...Looking Forward: New Orleans native Liz Hefler embraces new Hancock Whitney leadership role and continued community service

Liz Hefler reached a bit of a crossroads during her time as an economics major at the University of Virginia.

Like many of her classmates, Hefler strongly considered working in the investment sector after graduation. But, a less-than-ideal internship experience made her question that career path and wonder what was next.

“My parents wanted me to come back to New Orleans and encouraged me to pursue a career in traditional finance,” she recalled. “I followed that advice and started at Hancock Whitney right after I graduated. At the time, I thought I would eventually leave to work in a different industry. But, at Hancock Whitney, I was surrounded by a great group of mentors and teammates, plus clients who were entertaining and fun. Twenty years later, I’m still here and I still love it.”

The Dream of Financial Prosperity and How We Are Supporting Our Communities in Achieving It

As we honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and reflect on his dream of a more equitable society, it is crucial to acknowledge the persistent challenges that the Black community faces, particularly in achieving financial wellness and building generational wealth. The racial wealth gap remains a stark reality, underscoring the need for concerted efforts to foster economic empowerment and uplift Black Americans across the country.
