Ramsey Promoted to Northeast Regional Sales and Lending Manager
Farm Credit of the Virginias (FCV) announced that previous branch manager for the Culpeper and Warrenton offices, Becky Ramsey, was promoted to regional sales and lending manager earlier this year. Her territory covers the Oakland (Md.), Leesburg, Warrenton, Culpeper, Orange and Charlottesville branches.
Originally from Mount Crawford, Va., Ramsey has called Culpeper home for the last 12 years. Growing up in the Shenandoah Valley, Ramsey was surrounded by agriculture. She raised sheep and cattle as 4-H projects in her youth. Ramsey later attended Virginia Tech, where she graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Agricultural Economics, followed by a master’s degree in Agricultural and Extension Education.
Ramsey joined the FCV team as a loan officer in the Culpeper branch in 2013 and was promoted to branch manager in 2017. In early 2024, she also became branch manager of the Warrenton branch. During her 13-year tenure with FCV, Ramsey has had the opportunity to build strong relationships both inside and outside of the Association, with co-workers and customer-owners alike.
In regards to her new position, Ramsey is excited to be taking on a greater leadership role and working alongside a broader team to carry out Farm Credit’s mission. She shared, “I get to work with a team of incredible staff to help our customer-owners meet their goals.”
Michael Almond, chief lending officer, shared, “Becky has exhibited tremendous leadership during her time serving as branch manager of both our Culpeper and Warrenton branches. We are looking forward to watching her grow and take on additional responsibilities in this new role. Becky’s passion for agriculture and serving our customer-owners is evident in everything she does.”
Ramsey currently resides on a farm in Culpeper with her family, where they raise sheep and some cattle. She is active in Culpeper Business Women and Culpeper Farm Bureau. She also leads a local 4-H Chapter and serves as the department head for the sheep show at the Culpeper-Madison-Rappahannock Farm Show.
