                            CERTIFICATION PURSUANT TO
                  SECTION 302 OF THE SARBANES-OXLEY ACT OF 2002


I, Jamie E. McReynolds, certify that:

        1.      I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-QSB of First
                Robinson Financial Corporation (the "registrant");

        2.      Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue
                statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
                necessary to make the statements made, in light of the
                circumstances under which such statements were made, not
                misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;

        3.      Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other
                financial information included in this report, fairly present in
                all material respects the financial condition, results of
                operations and cash flows of the registrant as of, and for, the
                periods presented in this report;

        4.      The registrant's other certifying officer(s) and I are
                responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls
                and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and
                15d-15(e)) for the registrant and have:

                (a)     Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or
                        caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be
                        designed under our supervision, to ensure that material
                        information relating to the registrant, including its
                        consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others
                        within those entities, particularly during the period in
                        which this report is being prepared;

                (b)     Evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's
                        disclosure controls and procedures and presented in this
                        report our conclusions about the effectiveness of the
                        disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the
                        period covered by this report based on such evaluation;
                        and

                (c)     Disclosed in this report any changes in the registrant's
                        internal control over financial reporting that occurred
                        during the registrant's most recent fiscal quarter, that
                        has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
                        materially affect, the registrant's internal control
                        over financial reporting; and

        5.      The registrant's other certifying officer(s) and I have
                disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal
                control over financial reporting, to the registrant's auditors
                and the audit committee of the registrant's board of directors
                (or persons performing the equivalent functions):

                (a)     All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in
                        the design or operation of internal control over
                        financial reporting which are reasonably likely to
                        adversely affect the registrant's ability to record,
                        process, summarize and report financial information; and

                (b)     Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves
                        management or other employees who have a significant
                        role in the registrant's internal control over financial
                        reporting.
