Job title: Account Executive

Agency: EPIC Insurance Brokers & Consultants

Location: Camp Hill, PA

What professional accomplishment are you most proud of?

My biggest accomplishment has been learning and growing in each of the commercial service roles that I’ve filled. I started fresh out of college sorting mail at an agency and have worked as a commercial account assistant, commercial account administrator, and now an account executive working directly with clients. Each role has been key to my development and helps me serve my clients in the best way possible now.

What words of wisdom would you offer young women just beginning their insurance careers?

My advice would be to lean in and add value where you can. You may not be the smartest insurance mind in the room, but you can provide a fresh set of eyes on processes and procedures that may not have been reviewed in a long time. The fresh eyes are your superpower – use them, and don’t ever be afraid to speak up.
