Beswick Promoted to ATC President
Advantage Trust Company is proud to announce the promotion of Julie Beswick to President. Julie joined ATC in 2005, and together with Brian Boyer, CEO and new Chairman of the Board, has been instrumental in the smooth transition of leadership following the retirement of founders, Mark and Julie Miller.
Beswick received her Bachelor of Science in Accounting from the University of Illinois at Chicago, and her Juris Doctorate from the University of Kansas. She worked as an estate planning attorney for a while before discovering her true passion for being a trust administrator. Boyer says, “Julie’s dedication to our clients, the company, and our staff is unwavering. This recognition is very much deserved, and we are excited to see what the future holds under Julie’s continued leadership.”
In her free time, Beswick can be found cheering on the Jayhawks with her husband, Marc, and three daughters. Julie’s favorite pastime is watching KU basketball. “I am honored that my contributions to ATC have been recognized by our Board of Directors,” says Beswick. “I am especially grateful to my mentor and our CEO, Brian Boyer – his guidance and advice during my time at ATC has been invaluable. We have an amazingly talented team, and I look forward to working with every one of them to continue building on the exceptional foundation that Mark and Julie Miller built.”
Please join us in congratulating Julie and wishing her continued success!
