Ms. Crosthwaite joined the OCC in 1984 and received her National Bank Examiner designation in 1988. Throughout her career at the OCC, Ms. Crosthwaite has made important contributions across the agency's Community Bank, Regional and Midsize Financial Institution, and Large and Global Financial Institution lines of business. She has served as the Capital Markets Team Lead and Enterprise Risk Management Team Lead for some of the largest institutions the OCC supervises.
