Kedia ascended the ranks to become U.S. Bancorp’s president last May. She previously served as the vice chair of wealth, corporate, commercial and institutional banking. In that role, Cecere said, she doubled the share of the bank’s total revenue from her sector, from 10% to 20%, in five years.

Most recently, as president, Kedia oversaw U.S. Bank’s three main areas of business: consumer and business banking; payment services; and wealth, corporate, commercial and institutional banking.

She has spent nearly 30 years in the financial services sector, including leadership roles at State Street Financial and McKinsey & Co.

The announcement from U.S. Bank said Kedia earned her MBA from Carnegie Mellon University, and a bachelor’s in engineering from the Delhi College of Engineering. She holds board roles with PBS, the American Red Cross and Carnegie Mellon University’s Tepper School of Business.

U.S. Bank employs more than 70,000 people, including approximately 11,000 in the Twin Cities area, and manages $678 billion in assets. It is the country’s fifth largest bank.
