Kirk Vaughn
Sr. Commercial Banking Officer
With 23 years of experience in business banking, Kirk brings a strong mix of knowledge and dedication to his role as Senior Commercial Banking Officer at CoastHills. A 2003 graduate of Cal Poly San Luis Obispo with a degree in Finance and Business Management, Kirk also completed the Pacific Coast Banking School Class of 2022, sharpening his skills in supporting small businesses and commercial growth.
He loves working at CoastHills for the company culture and the chance to support local businesses. One of his favorite moments is helping small business owners purchase their first commercial real estate building—a milestone that makes a real difference for the community.
When he’s not helping businesses grow, Kirk enjoys spending time with his family, playing tennis, skiing, and enjoying everything the Central Coast community has to offer. Guided by the idea that "happiness is only real when shared," he balances work with an active and family-focused life.
A true Central Coast supporter, Kirk believes CoastHills stands out for its local decision-making and personal approach, helping small businesses thrive and building lasting community relationships.
