"Ronnie's culture-first attitude, drive for success and high bar he sets for himself and his team will take this newly combined Area to all new levels of achievement and opportunity."

"Helping people identify their strengths, find their motivation and then achieve their goals is something I have enjoyed from Day 1. Helping our teams in Mobile, Pensacola, Memphis and Mississippi find their stride and excel is something I take pride in," added Bloodworth.

I look forward to having the high quality and high performing teams across the state of Alabama join us as I move into this new role."
