HomeStreet Inc. has appointed Sandra Cavanaugh to its board of directors and the board of directors for HomeStreet Bank.
Cavanaugh previously served as CEO and president of U.S. Private Client Services at Russell Investments. From 2010-16, she oversaw the firm’s $45 billion mutual fund business and all adviser-sold business in the U.S. She has also held senior executive positions at Sun Trust Bank, Washington Mutual and JP Morgan Chase.

Cavanaugh has been a financial consultant since her retirement from Russell Investments.
“I am excited to be joining the HomeStreet Board and to bring my expertise and perspective to help inform the strategic goals of the company,” she said Sandra. “HomeStreet’s achievement converting from a troubled thrift to a diversified commercial and consumer bank has been impressive, and I look forward to assisting the company in furthering this transformation and enhancing shareholder value.”
