He succeeds Paul Richard, who is retiring at the end of the year.
“We are extremely pleased with this leadership transition. Paul will retire as a beloved leader. We couldn’t have had a more able leader for the past seven years. Fred’s vision, experience, and accomplishments are an ideal fit for The SHINE Initiative going forward,” said Advisory Board Chair and Fidelity Bank Chairman and CEO Edward F. Manzi, Jr.
Kaelin will begin his role in mid-September.
