Mara Charlamb, vice president and owner of United Radio, Inc. in Syracuse, and Richard Cook, a partner in the banking and finance and corporate practices at law firm Hancock Estabrook, LLP of Syracuse, have both joined the group. The council meets regularly and provides M&T management with insight on business, client, and community issues.
“Both Mara and Richard have made a significant impact to the business community of Central New York. Their different backgrounds are valuable additions to M&T Bank’s advisory council and I am confident that they will help M&T continue its vital role in the region,” Allen Naples, president of M&T’s Syracuse region, said in a news release.
