MidFirst Bank Builds Upon Colorado Presence with New Denver Tech Center Location

Dedicated banking, credit and real estate team brings full-service commercial capabilities to Denver

OKLAHOMA CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MidFirst Bank, the nation’s largest privately owned bank, today announced the growth of its Colorado operations with a new office conveniently located at the Denver Tech Center (DTC). The Bank opened the new location at 4582 Ulster Street, Suite 100 in April 2026. The expansion brings together a nine-person team with expertise across commercial banking, credit and national commercial real estate, deepening MidFirst’s capabilities in one of Colorado’s most active business communities.

“We have built a strong foundation in Colorado, and this expansion is the next step in that journey,” said Brian Wilkinson, Colorado Market President at MidFirst Bank. “The Denver Tech Center is home to a dynamic mix of businesses that employ thousands of Coloradans and power the local economy. We’ve assembled a curated team with the depth of experience to serve them at the highest level.”

The new DTC location will serve as a commercial and real estate banking hub, with credit teams embedded across MidFirst’s Colorado locations and all loans retained in-house – a model that enables faster, locally-minded decision-making. The commercial banking team is comprised of Jon Wilms, First Vice President, and Vice Presidents Tyler Sytsma and Sam Buetler, who bring a combined 30 years of experience across commercial real estate and business and private banking.

Mike Shoemaker, Managing Director at MidFirst Bank, heads up the national commercial real estate team. Shoemaker has deep expertise in Denver’s commercial real estate market. He is joined by Aaron Johns, Assistant Vice President, who will support the Bank’s real estate relationship management and origination efforts.

MidFirst entered the Colorado market in 2014 and has since grown across several communities, including Denver, Boulder and Edwards. The DTC location marks the bank’s continued investment in the state, with plans to grow it into a full-service branch in 2027. The new location also furthers MidFirst’s broader strategy to continue expanding into additional high-growth markets across the Western United States.
