Williams Vice President, KeyBank After growing up in the Seattle area, Robert Williams decided that he needed some time away from the city. With the allure of a track and field scholarship and an academic scholarship from Bank of America, he made the move to Washington State University intending to major in business. While at WSU, Williams balanced athletics and academics, receiving his bachelor’s degree in finance (’79), and earning a varsity letter each of his four years in Pullman. He competed in a number of track events, even holding a school record in the long jump for almost a decade. With more than 25 years of experience in financial services, Williams has served as the vice president of community development banking at KeyBank since January 2005. He is responsible for administering the internal and external community reinvestment activities for KeyBank in Washington. It is this interest in the betterment of community that has motivated Williams to serve on the College of Business National Board of Advisors. “Though higher education is often considered a luxury, I feel it is a necessity. The more readily available higher education becomes, the better our community will be.” Williams takes special interest in the enrollment and graduation rates of minorities. “It is important to attract students and faculty more representative of the population that we serve.” In an effort to do so, Williams is currently working with the CB on a KeyBank proposal to enhance diversity in WSU’s student body and future business leaders. Williams resides in Seattle and enjoys traveling, golf, and working out in his free time. —caitlin devlin 50 WSU College of Business

Wolfe ’78 Business Administration, Finance Managing Partner Northwest Venture Associates Ron Wysaske ’74 Business Administration, Accounting ’89 MBA Executive Vice President Riverview Community Bank Jeff Pinneo President and CEO, Horizon Air Jeff Pinneo became involved in the College of Business National Board of Advisors in 2004 as a result of a business partnership between WSU and Horizon Air. An Edmonds native, Pinneo is the self-described “token Husky on the Board.” Though the wellknown rivalry can be a great source of banter, says Pinneo, “When all the kidding dies down, there’s a whole lot to be excited about, being involved with the good work that’s going on at the College” Fascinated with aviation since childhood, Pinneo earned his bachelor’s degree in communications from the University of Washington with the help of a Navy ROTC scholarship. He got his start in the industry in 1977 as a flight attendant for Continental Airlines. Pinneo joined Alaska Airlines’ marketing department in 1981 and was responsible for the original implementation of their frequent flier program. He moved to Horizon in 1990 as vice president of customer service and was appointed to his current position of president and CEO in 2002 He attributes his involvement with the NBoA to the focus of the CB on their undergraduate program—a curriculum, says Pinneo, which rivals that of many graduate programs. “As a result of Horizon’s association with WSU, I’ve witnessed the work the College has done to set themselves apart in a way that’s very distinct, attractive, and substantial.” In his free time, Pinneo enjoys the “blessings” of life in the Northwest with family and friends, and is involved in what he describes as “purposeful engagement”: service work focused on children’s healthcare abroad. —caitlin devlin Dividend 51
