Richard Candland

Mr. Candland graduated with honors in Economics at Oregon State, and then continued his education at Pacific Coast Banking School. Following his education, he began a 40 year career in the commercial banking industry, working for First National, First Interstate and Wells Fargo. His focus has been primarily on lending and risk analysis. Currently serving on the board of several corporations and running his own retail business, he brings a profound understanding of financial management to Bellatrix.

Rich has been deeply involved with Bellatrix operations for many years, first as a banking contact, then as a general manager and SVP, and finally as a member of the board. He has guided general and financial decisions that have aided Bellatrix in staying profitable in ways not obvious to those less skilled in evaluating risk and direction. Rich uses his experience in evaluating other companies to guide the decisions and directions Bellatrix selects.
