Ted Bojorquez joined California Bank of Commerce (CBC) as executive vice president and manager for the bank’s Silicon Valley region, where he will focus on providing creative solutions to mid-sized businesses.
“Through this global pandemic and resulting economic uncertainty, CBC has continued to provide our clients with an exceptional level of service and products to meet their needs,” Michele Wirfel, chief banking officer of California Bank of Commerce, said. “We recently transitioned our Fremont office into our expanded San Jose location and are focused on growing our ability to support clients throughout the entire Silicon Valley region. The addition of Ted to our leadership team truly broadens our playbook and bolsters our South Bay strategy.”
“We are excited to welcome Ted Bojorquez to lead our South Bay presence,” Thomas A. Sa, CFO and chief operating officer of California Bank of Commerce, said. “His diversified finance and lending background, as well as his ties to the area, position him as a key leader in our success and that of our clients.”
Bojorquez joined CBC from HomeStreet Bank, where he served as Northern California market president for the past three years and grew the bank’s commercial and technology lending practices from the ground up. He has more than 25 years of banking experience including time with City National and US Bank.
“CBC was built by local entrepreneurs to support local entrepreneurs, and as an entrepreneurial person myself I am eager to continue that vision in Silicon Valley by building customized solutions that support our client’s growth and in turn the bank’s growth,” Bojorquez said.
