Carl Hanna
PNC Bank has named veteran banker Carl Hanna to serve as Southwest Retail territory executive, the financial institution said on Wednesday morning.
Hanna will oversee PNC’s retail branch network in Texas, Arizona, Colorado, California and New Mexico. He also will coordinate efforts with retail leadership to execute PNC’s approximate $1 billion-dollar national investment to open new branches and renovate existing locations across the country — many of which will be located throughout the southwest territory.

The investment includes key locations such as Austin, Dallas, Denver, Houston, Miami and San Antonio.
“As one of the largest retail banks in the United States, our branch network, alongside our other core banking channels, plays a key role in how we serve and provide solutions to our clients across the country,” said Jeff Martinez, head of PNC Branch Banking, in a statement. “Carl’s a proven leader that will continue executing our retail branch strategy and I’m confident our Southwest teams will continue to flourish under his leadership.”
Most recently, Hanna served as the North Texas retail market manager for PNC. He joined the company through the BBVA USA acquisition. Over the course of his career, Hanna has held several leadership roles in client experience, sales and branch management, and brings nearly 30 years of experience to the position.
Maria Moschella will succeed Hanna as North Texas retail market manager. She will have oversight of eight regions throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth metro area, including 95 branches and a mobile branch. PNC’s mobile branches partner with local community organizations to extend crucial financial resources and services to unbanked or underbanked individuals.
Moschella was the New York, New Jersey and northeast Pennsylvania retail market manager.
She joined PNC in 2011 and has held several senior leadership roles within retail distribution, including a sales and service strategy role covering more than 1,200 branches across 11 states and the District of Columbia.
Earlier this year, PNC announced a plan to open more than 100 new locations and renovate more than 1,200 existing locations through 2028. These branches will focus on hospitality, offering the right balance of in-person interactions and digital tools to help clients reach their financial goals. PNC’s branch network, in partnership with the company’s other banking channels, work together to create personalized banking experiences for the unique communities they serve.
“North Texas has five of the 15 fastest-growing cities in the U.S., and PNC continues to grow alongside the region in all our businesses, including retail,” said Brendan McGuire, PNC regional president for North Texas. “Maria’s extensive experience will be instrumental in carrying forward this growth while also guiding our investments in new branches and renovations. She has a strong track record of building winning teams and enhancing client relationships within our retail networks.”
